About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Always be open to new experiences

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Simone, 36, living in Hannover, Germany, where I work part-time as a free-lancer for a market research company.
Ive lived here all my life, havent moved so far, but I love to travel.
In 1995/1996 I spent a year in the US as an Au-pair girl. Afterwards I travelled around the US for 4 weeks with my sister. And since then I love travelling in general as often as possible.
As Im a huge David Bowie fan I travelled a lot to follow his tours, which led me to the east and west coast of America, all around Europe and even to Australia and Japan :)

The last place I travelled to was New York City, where I spent my holidays for two weeks in April/May. Just love that city. Been there many times. And last year Ive been to Turkey a lot cause my friend has a house there.

I also love going to concerts, taking photos, meeting friends, spending time in my garden, going to the movies...

PHILOSOPHY

I think every tiny single decision in life can change it completely and take it to a new direction...just like the butterfly effect,.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both like to surf other couches when Im travelling and of course also host people to have a good and inexpensive time in Hannover.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went to Edinburgh, Munich and New York City since I joined CS, and had great experience there. Worked out very well, and got to meet nice people!
Finally I recently also had my first guests here, which was a nice experience as well.
