About Me

PLEASE NOTICE: I GET SO MANY REQUESTS, I AM NOT ABLE TO ANSWER THEM ALL, WHICH MAKES ME FEEL REALLY BAD. I AM SORRY YOU GUYS, I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE 🙈

Well, what´s to say about myself? Was born in Magdeburg, lived a few years at the Baltic Sea and been living in Berlin since 2 years already. I´m a huge animal lover. Thankfully I´d been given the opportunity to work for a great animal welfare organisation. Living the dream, horray! 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing, because I absolutly loved the idea of getting to know a country trough its people. I´ve experienced some great adventures thanks to this community. And now I wanna see which exciting things are still out there to discover.

Interests

I love being surrounded by my friends. I also like being alone and spend the whole day laying around lazy or playing video games. Most of my free time I spend with my dog being outside walking trough mother nature 🤗

Music, Movies, and Books

Hard to tell, so much great stuff!

Movies:
I loved Big Fish! The Fall was beautiful. War photographer blew my mind. Shawshank Redemption, Moulin Rouge, American History X, Walk the line, Amelie, big fan of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, most of the Disney movies, Life of Brian, Hidalgo, i cried so much watching "The last unicorn", I also cried a lot seeing the shaun the sheep movie and don't even know why I cried, probably just felt sorry for the poor dog from the animal shelter which everyone called ugly.
😭

Series:
In the last years I mostly watched animes tbh, I really love Hunter x Hunter and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. Also Death Parade, Attack on titan, Erased, Parasyte and so much more. Animes are SO MUCH BETTER than real life tv shows imo!
Other shows I liked:
Supernatural - Fan of the first hour 😅
Also Game of thrones, The Walking Dead, The Simpsons, Friends, How I met your mother, South Park, Scrubs, Pushing Daisies

Music:
I´m a fan of classic rock, but also modern rock, punk, medieval music and sometimes even pop music, plus we have a lot a great german groups I really like. Some examples: Johnny Cash, Green Day, Led Zeppelin, Bad Religion, Billy Talent, The Offspring, Omnia, Die Ärzte, Die Toten Hosen, In Extremo, Rammstein.
However, a year ago I discovered BTS and SKZ and haven't stopped listening ever since.

Books:
Alexandre Dumas - The three musketeers
J.K. Rowling - Harry Potter
most of the books of Mark Twain
