About Me

2019 is a wonderful year! I will finally graduate from civil engineering school after dedicating the last 7 years to my studies. Also I am getting married to the most loving and wonderful man this year.
Erik is a free lance web developer who's currently doing his master studies in media engineering.
We are eager to explore Europe together on our honeymoon in summer.

I've lived in Paris in 2012 and was very active on Couchsurfing during that time. Sadly I was so distracted by my studies when I got back home and didn't make cultural exchange a priority. I want to change that now and remember what I loved about traveling and exploring when I was younger. Which is getting to know so many people with different views, backgrounds and culture all of which have the capability to expand your horizon and show you new perspectives.
I love listening to good stories. I could listen to people telling me about the things they're passionate about for hours. I am not a clubbing person. i would rather connect with someone over a beer or a walk than party in a crowded club.
I love doing spontaneous things and being surrounded by people who inspire me to do so.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love how couchsurfing can make you feel at home no matter where in the world you are.
Couchsurfing introduced me to a totally different level of traveling. I would never choose it as a cheap alternative to Hostels. Staying with a native will show you the soul of the city you're visiting. It's not the sights or the touristic attractions that make a city unique but the people who live in it, the stories they have to tell, the backyard magic they can show you and the little things that happen to you when you least expect it.

Interests

being in my garden, bouldering, traveling, painting, smiling, dreaming, enjoying life, dancing on the streets, reading, doing spontaneous stuff, being in a good mood, accepting a bad mood once in a while, smelling, tasting and feeling the world.

I love collecting little things from the places that I go. Might it be letters, photos, little drawings or just stuff that people forgot somewhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was brave enough to climb down the Parisian catacombs. The real ones, not the tourist entrance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to open a wine bottle with a shoe and a beer bottle with a lighter.
I could as well make you try some unusual painting techniques and I bet I could get you addicted to Finger Paint!
or if you are looking for something useful I could teach you some sentences in German, English or French too...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a big, open heart and I will do my best to return the favor of you showing me your world. I have always been told to be a pretty descent guest - thoughtful and caring.
