Hello beautiful humans!

I'm Tina- lover of the outdoors, good food, long walks, cozy cafés, unexpected jam sessions, of silly and of deep talks. Hummus addict. I'm into art, enviornmentalism, intersectional feminism, world politics and card games (I'll destroy you). Plus, I'm always up for a beer at an inappropriate time of the day :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to learn all about cultural differences, local habits and other people's views and beliefs - as different as they may be from my own
