About Me

I'm a dedicated polyglot and total coffe-addict.

I studied everything from Astronomy to music theory and am not sure where I will end up (who is though?)
Finished my BA in Performing Arts 2017 and have since then lived 4 months in New York studying dance and worked six months at sea (baltic sea, not that interesting..).

Last year i started a new BA in Global studies at the University of Gothenburg, but after only two months got a job as a singer on a cruiseship and flew to Australia to spend six months around Australia to then cross the indian ocean and round Africa. It was quite extraordinay and i made a deal with my prof. to be aloud to keep studying at a distance ;)

I am currently kind of roaming, probably going on a ship soon, spending my time in the baltic sea working or in belgrade with my boyfriend. I will use interrail to get from my ship to belgrde an back and will probably need a couple of stop overs and couches on the way ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A couple of years ago I traveld two weeks in north Italy with a close friend and it was our first experience couchsurfing. We stayed at maybe 6-7 different hosts and it was amazing. I just love the concept. A bit later i found myself alone in Berlin and ended up sighseeing with an Australian guy, a chinese guy, an italian guy and a girl from Jemen. I think the world needs more constellations like that, that more people from different countries get to know eachother. I'm here because i want to widen my perspective and get t know all types of people.

Interests

My life would be nothing without music. I started playing the violin at the age of 2,5 years and since then have gone throw all possible instruments. In the end my Voice became my main Instrument. Other than the music, I love to dance. Originally I danced with partner, but now its mostly jazz and ballet. I love going out dancing for real with a partner.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of different music, but mainly musical theatre right now, and some classical and jazz. My favorite movie at the time is the french movie "Intouchables". I havent really had time to read much lately, but I do love to reread Harry Potter in different languages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2011 I spent ten days in the deep forest in Tanzania near lake Victoria with a family of 13. I lived their life for those days, without electricity, all eating from a big plate on the floor. The love they hade for eachother and how they were happy living in what for me seemed like horrible conditions changed me alot. I still think alot about them and the impact they had on my life, the perspective they gave me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I do speak alot of languages and would be happy to help if you want some tutoring. And at the other end I am always curious for new language skills and would love to learn more.

I dance alot and could teach you everything from the basics of classical ballet to tapdance to how to do a breakdance babyfreeze.

I would LOVE if anyone knowing salsa, tango , quickstep or any couples dance really would take me dancing and teach me more!
