I'm Verena, passionate about music, arts, books, traveling and all sorts of other stuff!
Currently I'm studying International Business in Mannheim which offered me the amazing opportunity of studying in Madrid for the fall term of 2016.
Apart from that you'll have to get to know me by yourself ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people from all over the world and get to know their culture. I also like languages and the best way to improve my skills is to get in touch with native speakers.
Couchsurfing offers me the great opportunity to travel like a local and get to know the cultures and countries from a different perspective than just as a tourist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I absolutely love traveling. So I guess the most amazing thing I've done so far was 2 months of backpacking around Australia at the age of 18 after I graduated from Highschool. I was traveling on my own for the first time but I was never alone. I met amazing people from all over the world and saw things I won't ever forget in my life. I went hiking in the Grampians, camped on Fraser Island, sailed the Whitsundays, saw my first wild Baby Koala on Magnetic Island, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef (slightly mainstream - I know), and finally slept under the most amazing starlit sky I've ever seen on my final trip in the Outback. About 16.000 km from home I had the most amazing time so far so I guess this is definitely one amazing thing I've done.
