CURRENT MISSION

Find new friends in Duisburg, Essen, Mülheim, Oberhausen, Düsseldorf and nearby.

It's a shame you can't send any message with your contact request. Anyway...I‘m Astrid from Duisburg and looking for a few contacts with whom I can do one of the following:
1.) Go on excursions in the area and day trips ( for example to the archeological park Xanten, Zeche Zollverein, Venlo, Arnhem or other cities in NL with a direct train connection from our area, or simply a walk around six lakes Duisburg or Baldeneysee Essen oder similar;
2.) join an outdoor aquajogging course in summer with me. However, I want to attend a particular one since the area is lovely and the trainer phantastic. It will be at DSV98 in Duisburg. BTW, there will be an open day on 1st May and you can already have a look around and at the pool where the course will take place, if the dates remain the same as last year, there will be courses on Monday and Wednesday evenings ( however, I would only be able to make it on Wednesdays ).
In any case, if you like my profile, please accept my contact request.
Kind regards,
Astrid

ABOUT ME

Animal lover / cat owner, interested in foreign languages ( I speak German, English, French and a little Italian and Spanish ), grew up in Bad Kreuznach, lived in Cologne for many years and now in Duisburg. I also take dogs for a walk. Furthermore, I organize an international language cafe. Last not least, in summer I spend most of my free time at my swimming club DSV98 swimming in the lake and pool, joining aquajogging classes and simply relaxing.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To make international friends and learn about the world.
