About Me

hi there! i am an outgoing, openminded, half italian-half german girl from switzerland currently working in a wonderful centre for arts in germany. i love to travel (you don't say) and to meet new people over a good meal. in my eyes, respect and sincere curiosity are the best properties to have on a trip, and this is how i like to go about my travels. i speak french, german, english and some rudiments of italian, and i definitely am a master in conversing with hands and feet if there is no other way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet up with people from around the world, help out on travels and vice versa! unfortunately, i don't really have a couch at the moment, so even though I would love to host it would be a little uncomfortable. but even without a couch, i am happy to help!

Interests

my passions are food (although i make a better eater than a cook), contemporary art, sports (i play tennis and love to ski), books, nature (i am always down for crazy hikes!), music (especially when played live), and discovering new worlds through other peoples eyes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i climbed a holy mountain in china

Teach, Learn, Share

i think you learn an amazing lot by watching the world with openminded and curious eyes. everyone has got his/her own interests and his/her personal kind of curiosity - mine is reading buildings and cities through the lens of art history and architecture, if i am not trying to reach the top of another mountain that has charmed me.
