About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

20 years old; lived the last ten years in a beautiful small town in Germany (Marburg); made very good friendships in France while traveling; interested in art and literature; like sharing experiences with different people, talking to them to learn more about life and culture; love being outdoors, hiking and skiing; also like having a good cup of coffee and just hanging around; fell in love with the idea of surfing last summer in France and now try to get better; like being on the beach, feeling sand under my toe; just got back from working for six months in a Day- and Boarding School in Ballart, Australia and traveling New Zealand...

PHILOSOPHY

'Happiness is those rare moments when you are so completely locked in, that you feel like dancing in harmony with life itself.' Andrea Kabwasa

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am an opened, creative person, that likes talking to other people, getting to know more about culture and life experiences ...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

(I didn't couchsurfed yet, but some of my friends had good experiences with it; I hope to get the same positive impression about it! Once I am back home I would also be opened to recieve people!)
now:

I did couchsurf for my first time with Carmel in Auckland. I was really happy about how it worked out! It was a very good experience to stay with her and her daughter. Thanks to her I learned much more about the whole 'Couchsurfing Community'. Right the first night we went to a CS-Event and I was impressed how different age-groups participate from all over the world! It's definitly an amazing idea of exchange in all sorts of ways!
