CURRENT MISSION
Live life to the fullest!
ABOUT ME
Nothing is worse than boredom. Crazyness is the key :)
I am officially done with my studies of Tourism and Eventmanagment and Business Management :)
I am currently working onboard Cruise ships....and no...it is not vacation ;)
One year of my life I have spent in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as an exchange student...great experience, only to recommend.
I have one love in my life (other than my family and my dog ;))...and that is New York City! I haven't been to any other city that often other than my home region. Studied there last year for 3 months and I just wanted to stay...I have to end up there at some point :)
PHILOSOPHY
Pain is temporary, pride is forever!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am fairly new and would like to take as much advantage out of couchsurfing as possbile...traveling and hosting!
I enjoy being in an international surrounding :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had my first real CS experience last summer in Lisboa and it was GREAT!
Had a crazy weekend in Amsterdam with a finish friend and the CS Community there is the best! Fun two nights with awesome people from all over he world!
Interests
Any Sports, I was a competitive swimmer for ten years, ran a couple of half marathons and the NYC Marathon, love soccer and beachvolleyball, skiing and any other sport, other than golf. Of course I enjoy discovering the world and getting to know new people. I love attending concerts and riding my motorcycle.
I skydived once and wish to do it more often, I try to improve my knowledge of languages - being abroad helps ;) and while touring the world I have to secure every impression by taking pictures ;)
I do not deny excellent cuisine and every now and then I just have to dance my butt off on a party.
I am very active, bubbly, fidgety and love spontaneous adventures.
I just did my Open Water Diving license oh and I love cruising, I worked a couple times on a cruise ship...much fun!
I love being in the city as well as being out in nature. Currently I am hiking a lot as in five weeks I will touch the sky from Uhuru Peak (Kilimanjaro) ;).
I am always eager to learn the inside scoop!
