CURRENT MISSION

you move nothing - if you don't move yourself

ABOUT ME

--- SORRY - Please no further requests - We can't host right now ---

My boyfriend and I are living in Washington Heights (Upper Manhattan) and have a nice one bedroom apartment. I moved here from Germany in March 2010 and my boyfriend - originally from Ohio - lives since 12 years in the city.

We both love travelling. My dream is to explore as much from the world as possible. It is so exciting to meet people from different countries and learn about their culture.

I am very lucky: I already could visit various beautiful countries and had the possibility to do some exciting travelling abroad. And it's always the same, after a trip I can hardly wait to plan the next.

It would be so beautiful to live by the sea sometime. But as far as this time comes and until I have found a nice place for it, I hopefully will follow lots of nice journeys and will get together with a lot of nice people from all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We do not have a separate guest room, but you will be able to sleep on a comfortable futon in our living room. Since it is a rather small apartment, and we both live there, we can only offer a couple of days for travelers--and preferably during a weekend. Hopefully, we will have a larger apartment someday where we can host people longer.
But, please inquire and we might be able to accommodate you. If not, we could show you around the city or meet for coffee! We love meeting new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I already surfed a couch in Athens, met a CS friends in different locations and hosted people in Essen and New York City. Furthermore I am also a member of VIRTUALTOURIST (see: members.virtualtourist.com/hundertmorgen). There I met more than 150 people from different countries in person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a start of a manned spaceship (by night) from the closest point possible for audiance at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in 1995.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share my knowledge... networks are great - competition (except in sports) and bigotry is generally unknown to me.
