Hi! We’re Nina and Malte — a travel-loving couple from Germany on a sabbatical.

We travel slowly and love real connections. Our favorite evenings are at the kitchen table, chatting about everyday life, local neighborhoods, and the little stories that make a place feel like home.

Our blog
We document our journey on our travel blog. We’d love to chat about ideas, routes, and must-see spots.

How we travel
We usually stay 2–4 nights per place, spend days out exploring (nature, markets, cafés), and enjoy a relaxed evening together — cooking or playing a game. We also like meet-ups without staying overnight — the conversation matters most!

What we need
Just something simple to sleep on (couch, mat, or guest room) plus bathroom access and drinking water. We leave everything clean and respect your routine.

Let’s connect!
If you’d enjoy showing your city through your eyes — or simply grabbing a coffee or playing a quick game — we’d be happy to meet you. 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We’re not just looking for a bed — we’re here for local exchange. We love talking about travel destinations, recommendations, and hidden gems, and we’re just as happy to share our own tips and experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

Almost everything :) Nina loves every movie with Cameron Diaz, Malte enjoys thriller --》action/comedy is our match.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vulcanos and and the underwater world!

Teach, Learn, Share

We love to learn new cultures and a bit of the language. Also we are happy to share our skills and teach others! Sometimes we try to Volunteer as example in Indonesia to teach the local kids.

What I Can Share with Hosts

- respectful, tidy, non-smokers; we follow rules
- we like cooking, maybe you wanna try our service? ;)
- we love games (cards & small travel games) and often carry one or two for a cozy evening
