About Me

Keep on cruising :)
I left my home town Berlin end of 2014, at the age of 18, to go travelling in new zealand, hoping to find out about what I want to do with my life. I Had a great time cruising around in new zealand and australia, went to some amazing places and met many great people.
In australia i got into wwoofing, an organisation called willing workers on organic farms, and i want to do more wwoofing in other places, its a great way of learning about different ways of life, and it has helped me a lot finding answers. I know now I dont want to spend all the rest of my life living in the middle of a big city. I am actually thinking to get myself some land somewhere and get self- sustainable, maybe after getting some more education in berlin and doing some more travelling :) I have heard portugal would be a great place to start a life like that, so i decided to visit portugal and maybe do some wwoofing there too.
the last months i did some cycling in nz, so i am taking my bike to portugal and spend some time riding around the place :)
I really hope to learn some portuguese while I am there, or at least pick up a couple of words and phrases, i will need some portuguese if i should actually decide one day to move there :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first heard about couchsurfing after I started travelling, so for the only reason for me to be here is to find hosts, people who want to share their homes and places and stories with travellers like me. I have made only a few experiences with couchsurfing so far, and the ones i have happened just through getting picked up while hitchhiking, never actually through the website. those experiences were good ones though, i dont think i will ever forget how much those people helped me out by picking me up and giving me a bed for the night, and i am really looking forward to hosting people myself when i am back living in berlin. I love being able to help people who are in need of help, or just getting to know new and interesting people.
