ABOUT ME

Hi everyone, my name is Anne and I'm an open-minded person who loves to get to know people from all over the world. I'm planning a trip around the world- as soon as I have saved enough money. Eventually I will then continue traveling as a freelance writer and make a living out of this. That would be my dream! Until then I work as a PR manager for an African-German exchange project for students and pupils.
I love cooking as much as gardening, meaning I get to use the freshest ingredients directly for my recipes. Usually home grown organic vegetables taste much better than anything you can find in a supermarket. You should try it out! If you would like to see some results of my cooking and gardening, I invite you to check out my blog: www.catchef.de

PHILOSOPHY

"I am a woman with thoughts and questions and shit to say. I say if I'm beautiful. I say if I'm strong. You will not determine my story—I will."
Amy Schumer

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Buddha

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Meeting new people with all kinds of backgrounds I find very enriching and inspiring. I am happy to offer my couch in Cologne to a nice soul and always curious to meet locals and fellow travellers while I’m out there exploring new places :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I visited NYC in 2010 for a summer school I met some very nice and interesting people through Couchsurfing network. I would like to continue meeting people wherever I travel and see their environment through their eyes. Always looking forward to learn something new!
