CURRENT MISSION

Singing opera while filling kitchens with good smells.

ABOUT ME

Passionate, Adventurous, Musical

PHILOSOPHY

My outlook and philosophy changes all the time! I try to laugh at everything rather than go the nihilistic route. Sometimes I wait a long time (too long) to fix something until it becomes exigent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My husband, Juergen, and I traveled around Northern California one summer. He had never couchsurfed, but he's convinced now!

I've hosted people when I was in college living in a shared house. It was refreshing to bring new people to our home to liven things up and throw some new languages in the mix.

One of my closest friends, Mauro, came out of my couchsurfing experience! His family took me in as a surrogate American daughter for about a week.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Someone stole my purse in Berlin and I busked on the streets to support myself and pay for my fare back to Switzerland. Sing for your supper.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy feeding people. Are you hungry? If you want, I can also teach you about opera.

I love to cook! Jürgen and I can make many meals together. Maybe I can sing some opera.
