Overview
About Me
German by birth, Aussie by choice, Canadian at heart, Irish soul :)
I work as a muscle therapist helping people with muscle pain, stress and anxiety. I love connecting mind and body. Currently studying for a health science degree.
Former passionate wine nerd and bartender. Still passionate but not professionally. I love food, wine and healthy and sustainable living.
I‘m also passionate about conscious living and being connected to the place and the people we live in.
I have been lucky to call the most amazing places home over the years and after being a ‚wandering gypsy‘ for a long time I have lived here in Melbourne for over six years and I’m so happy to call this place home.
I have experienced amazing friendships, hospitality and love sometimes whilst often being a stranger in a new town and I always love giving this love and experience back with whatever I do. This is why I love working in hospitality and this is why I‘m also really happy that I get to work as a healer.
I am a mix of being an extrovert whilst I’m out and about but at home I like to tone it down and create a peaceful space. I love to communicate and connect, have meaningful conversations but I also like to have a good laugh, be silly about random stuff (I don’t think I’ve inherited a German sense of humor ;-) and I know when it’s time to be quiet, too :)
I hope this resonates with you whether you’re thinking about hosting me or being my guest.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
A gypsy at heart I appreciate immediate friendships, hospitality and kindness. I’m also a student so whilst I appreciate amazing hotels and have worked in many myself, I need to watch my funds.
