Hi,

I'm Ulrike (Uli, please - shorter and easier). I live in Chemnitz an underestimated City in Saxony, East Germany. Here I work for a tiny publishing company (regional literature), as proofreader and editor. I also work as a journalist for a local newspaper.

I love my city, but I want to see all of the world, or at least as much as I can. I've travelled a lot in my years at university: I worked as a waitress for an event support agency, that got me around.

Right now, me and my boyfriend are planning our trip to South America - loving it!!
I couchsurfed only one time (Rome, 7 years ago), during my Erasmus year in Italy. Definitely want to work on that =)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

The usual stuff: Adventure, fun, excitement, to get to know the country, meet nice people, learn the language, see places normal tourists do not see. And because all inclusive trips are boooriing.

Interessen

I love my boyfriend Tommy, my friends & family, my obese cat Hanni.

I love my job (yeah, honestly), literature, travelling, painting, theater, social issues, adventures, surprising things.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can cook for you, don't know is you'll like it. My boyfriend does, at least he says so.

I could also sing for you, but I'm almost sure you will not like that.

No, seriously, I would like to share my time with you :-)
