ABOUT ME

Hmm... my name is Sophia, I studied sociology (which I still really like). Currently I work as a teacher in university, which I also like :)
I enjoy getting to known people a lot and I love to have long talks and find out about how people think, about their cultures, believes, hobbies and all that. I love animals!
I like reading, drawing, biking (much better: doing all this with a dog!! :D)

PHILOSOPHY
Being curious is the best remedy for fear.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the moment I live in a small flat with one room and a kitchen. So if you would not mind to stay in my room, while I sleep in the kitchen on the couch, you can have my bed :)

I couchsurf myself and I also like hosting. Keeps life intersting and dynamic!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experience was during an interrail tour through poland, and since that I want to repeat it! It's a great opportunity!
I stayed with a friend of mine with three different hosts and everyone of them was wonderful.
