ABOUT ME

ISFJ

I'm a very laid-back and humorous girl from Germany.

I enjoy travelling to different places and getting to know local people. I love workaway!

During the last few years I discovered my voice and became a quite ambitious singer, I love music, it makes my day.

I love cats! I have a cat named Emmi at my parents' place.

I like adventures and meeting new people, but on the other hand, I also have a very quiet and emotional side.

I try to see something positive in every little moment although my life sometimes seems to be rather chaotic.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans! Took me a long time to realize that, but this process is part of growing up I guess.

I finally stopped worrying so much about the future. It will come anyway. I am trying to make as much out of every little moment as possible. There's only one life and it can be over so quickly. Don't miss it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to meet locals and hopefully host in the near future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed with a few couchsurfers already and I have made great experiences with them. Love to meet more and someday host people too.

Interests

I recently discovered my passion for NIA, a mixture of dance, martial arts and relaxation. It really helps to stay positive.

You'll most likely find me outside enjoying nature, hanging out at a café, wandering around town and parks, trying new restaurants, cooking, playing table games, reading novels, listening to audio books...

Other interests are:
music, singing, playing the piano, going to small concerts, psychology, photography, bars with live music, movies, musicals, theatre, watching Olympics, ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled through Peru on my own, worked with kids who have disabilities and met a lot of wonderful people along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I recently read a lot about personality types and figured out that I am the ISFJ type. I was impressed by how much I could identify with it. Do you know your type?

I like cooking which does not mean that I know all about it, but I like it and there are some meals I can prepare really well.

I can teach German to anybody who's interested.

I would like to practice Spanish!
