ABOUT ME

Hello couchsurfers :) I'm Mareike and I am a primary school teacher (what I really like a lot)in Esslingen (close to Stuttgart), Germany.

In my free time I like to meet friends, to go out, to cook and of course: to TRAVEL :)

Before I started studying in Oktober '08 I went to Australia (+ Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore) to work and travel there for 1 year. I had such a great time that I can't think of a better way to spend my time (and money) anymore, than travelling ;)

I would be really happy to meet as many nice people as possible here :)

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do
than by the ones you did do
So throw off the bowlines
Sail away from the safe harbour
Catch the trade winds in your sails
Explore. Dream. Discover.

(Mark Twain)
