Hey,
I'm Tamara, 21 years old. Currently I'm on a bikepacking trip, cycling through Denmark and south Sweden. Although I usually camp, I'd love to stay with some locals because during my last travels I figured out that it's simply the best way to get to know the people and the culture of the country.

About me: I finished high school in Germany two years ago and will start studying Biology in October. The two gap years I took I used for several travels, internships and finding out what I want for my future. When I'm at home in Cologne I enjoy spending time with my friends and family and doing sports, e.g. bodyweight training, climbing and biking. I am vegetarian with a vegan preference - don't worry, I won't annoy you with that topic :) I'm interested in figuring out a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. It's still a long way but I think every little step is helping to let this planet become a better place for all the living beings on it. I'm very interested and quite passionate about climate change and conservation and it's what I want to work with in the future. My friends would say I am a responsible and deliberated person but also very fun. I like talking, laughing, singing and dancing - even if I'm not good at it :)

In my opinion travelling is the best thing you can do to get to know the world and yourself. I experienced people who travelled the world as being open-minded, relaxed and kind. So I look forward to meeting you!

In the future, when I'm finally home for a longer time and hopefully moved out, I'll start to host travellers myself to give all the kindness and help back that I received during my travels :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

For me it's about meeting awesome people, sharing stories and knowledge. Being hosted allows me to experience the local lifestyle and the culture of the country - and often to have the most fun and remarkable times with people who have been strangers before.

Música, películas y libros

I love reading books and I also enjoy a good movie every now and then. I like the genres fantasy, romantic and comedy. But recently I'm more into watching documentaries and reading books about all kind of psychology stuff.

I don´t have one favourite singer or music genre. I just listen to the radio or playlists and as I do so I listen to many different types of music. Unfortunately I'm not very knowledgeable about the music I hear because for me it's more about the emotions in it than about it's background.

I really love listening to a piano or a guitar, sadly I never learned to play them by myself. It would be great to meet someone who can teach me a bit :)

Algo increíble que he hecho

My six months in New Zealand were the best time I ever had in my life. But I also created unforgettable memories in Namibia and miss this country and it's nature a lot.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

A friend and my sister taught me two things I will never forget:
If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try.
Enjoy every second!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Some good chats, laughs and food if you're interested :)
I really appreciate you letting me stay with you, so of course I'll be clean and tidy.
