About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life, travel, and meet new people

ABOUT ME

Right now, I'm finishing up my studies with an exchange program in Saint Petersburg, Russia. I love to travel and experience new cultures, languages, and food. I am low-key and prefer to explore rather than go to a party.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Life is too short not to enjoy it. (This includes eating sweets - my weakness.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think this is an amazing way to meet new people and explore the world. I hope that in the future I will live in a more appealing area so my couch could be put to better use. I haven´t hosted or surfed yet, but I did dine in Vienna. Great! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven´t surfed yet, but I think I will try couch surfing in Cairo. I can´t wait.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - I like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Amelie, but also romantic comedies.
Music - anything on the radio that I can listen to. I have a soft spot for salsa music.
Books - recently read ¨The Jungle¨ by Uptown Sinclair. Need to read more. Will do so soon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ko Tao, Thailand, night dive. Amazing to see the sea creatures light up when you wave your hand in the water.

Salcantay Trail, Peru. Amazing view of the stars from a view point at the base of the mountains, undisturbed by light pollution. Fantastic.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach. English, passion, exploring.
Learn. Language, cooking, dancing.
Share. A couch, a home cooked meal, a special travel story.
