Hi! We‘re Leon and Shayna, a couple from Berlin. It‘s our first vacation together and we decided to travel lovely sardinia

we wanted to describe eachother rather that describing ourselves:

leon is a particularly friendly and open-hearted guy. he studies renewable energies in Berlin and is therefore interested in lots of technical stuff. he loves analog photography and is always looking for new places and faces to capture. it‘s really hard to be in a bad mood when he‘s around, because he is very gentle, funny and open.

Shayna is studying history, and area studies asia/africa at Humboldt University in the centre of berlin. She is interested in politics and journalism, likes to read and discuss about all kind of current issues and social inequality. She loves animals, no matter if it's a cute cat or a huge bird. Only insects scare her a little bit, but she is working on that! She is very open minded and loves to meet new people and learn about their story and way of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

we wanted to get in touch with people and the local culture.

Interests

we both have broad interests and personalities. we could hang out at a beautiful restaurant one day and could go to an illegal techno party in the woods the other day. we like to chill and have a glass of wine, or a cold beer. we do enjoy theatre, literature, philosophy and the typical 3am talks that one has with friends or beloved people

mh, life?

Teach, Learn, Share

Leon can teach you a lot about (analog) photography, from taking the photo, over developing it yourself to scanning and hanging it.He‘ll peobably make sure that you‘ll get the pictures of the time we‘d spent together (they will be lovely, and self-developed, i promise:-) )
He's knows a bit about all kind of technical stuff and if your WiFi istn working right or you need to repair something in your house, there is a high chance that he can help you with that!

shayna can share a lot about different cultural and social studies, especially india, where her family is from. also, she can teach you how to cook good and authentic(!) indian food and help you improve your english/spanish or teach you some basic hindi. further she can explain a lot about her personal experience with psychoanalysis, which she‘s been doing for 2 years.

we‘re both very open towards any kinds of knowledge or experiences anyone would like to share with us, no matter what topic. no matter if personal experiences or from travelleing whatsoever. we‘re both trying our best to be respectful and appreciative towards cultures, people and nature!
