ABOUT ME

Hi I am Marie, native German new to New York. I am always up for an adventure and easily get bored when things are not moving around in a fast pace. May be that's why I loved living in London so much. I have a background in Communications and I love to talk to people about random things but also listen to other travelers stories.
I love summers and the sea...and unfortunately I have a penchant for chocolate! I love to go cycling in the city when it is not raining and always looking for the best coffee place in town as I am quite picky with good coffee and food! I like to cook together with friends or have a picnic at the beach. Include the word "watermelon" in your request so I know you actually read my profile!

PHILOSOPHY

20 years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did.Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

After I have surfed other people's couches for about 2 months last summer, I feel the urge to give back to the system as I can provide my couch and host other travels from all over the world.
