About Me

ABOUT ME

Hey there! Thanks for checking out my profile!
After finally finishing my Bachelor's I have the great chance to work in Lisbon for three months. I am super exited since I've only heard great things about Portugal's capital. I am looking forward to living in another european country after living in Germany and Vietnam so far.
However, I have been traveling before after I finished High School and well as most people do once you start you can't stop.
What I love most is the constant opportunity of meeting people and having a chat, but if I get tired it is no problem to be just a face in the crowd and enjoy the anonymity. Cultural differences fascinate me even though I do not always figure out how to overcome them. Still practicing ;)
I would love to improve my Portuguese during my time in Lisbon. So if you are keen to have a chat just let me know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I do not have couchsurfing experience over this website explicitly. Nevertheless, I've already surfed many couches either of friends or other people I met while traveling for different reasons. I consider myself as easy-going, neat and adaptable. So if you are up for a drink or wanna hang out - great! If you have a busy week - no worries! Just see how it goes.

Interests

In general, I like to try new things, any kind of sports or arts are always a good thing. At home I used to cook a lot, mainly asian or mediterranen food so please don't ask me to cook German food. There are people who can do that a lot better. However, what I like even more than cooking is going out for food or for drinks or simply socialising.
Since I believe that the culture has such a big impact on every human being, I really enjoy chatting about this topic, especially if a person's reflecting his own culture and can draw some objective conclusions. Always find that extremley interesting.

Music, Movies, and Books

Nothing special, like to try to listen to new music. There is always a song that suits the situation.

When I hang with people from another nationality I like when they show me a song that reminds me of them later. Great way to explore new music!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with 90ish dolphins in a hidden lagoon in Australia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think that my cooking skills are not too bad.

Of course we can practice some German. It's not as bad as it sounds ;)
