Hey my name is Svenja. I'm 26 y/o and living in a small German city called Wetter an der Ruhr (near Dortmund). This year I have been traveling two times in Central/ South America (1rst visit: Mexico, Belize & Costa Rica; 2nd visit: Panama & Colombia). Oh, I fell into love with traveling, exploring & backpacking right now. :-) - Pura Vida! <3

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I don't want to travel as a tourist. I like to learn about the people living in the countries and maybe meet to other people traveling like this. - If you like to visit my house, I will do my best to let you get the same feeling. ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like songs with good messages or on parties I dance to hip hop, reggeaton or other party music (I am very open for nearly every kind of music).

I love reading books written by Stephen King, Andreas Eschbach, Jojo Moyes, Dan Brown, J.K. Rowling, ...

One of my last watched movies is "Belleza Insperada" with Will Smith - worth seeing!!!
