About Me

I love travelling, exploring and learning about all kind of things. I really like the outdoors, camping, adventures. I also like rock climbing, especially bouldering. I'm not that kind of person who wants to change the world but I'm pretty much into all that environmental stuff;-)
I studied sustainable tourism management in Wernigerode, Germany.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed a lot in the US, Peru and NZ and I absolutely loved it! Since I'm back in Germany, I'd like to give the pleasure back. I'm living together with 6 other people and we don't really have a "couch" or something but if you bring your own sleepingbag you're always welcome to stay ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Like I said: did it a lot in the US, had some awesome experiences, met great people.
So far there was only one person sleeping at my place so I don't really have a lot of experiences with that. This one time we had a great time as well though...

Music, Movies, and Books

I dont watch a lot of TV to be honest... I always feel like Iam wasting my time and most times I cant sit down and just watch...there's always something else to do ;)
I like comedies though...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Yosemite Nationalpark -my favorite place on earth (so far ;) )

But there are so many more great things that I've seen in this one year in America..."surfing" in San Diego and Venice Beach,Jazz Bars in New Orleans, Scyscrapers in NYC, Nightlife and Casinos in Vegas, crazy Poolpartys in Miami etc.
more surfing in Pimentel, Peru, amazing views of Machu Picchu

Teach, Learn, Share

I think cooking is always a great opportunity to have fun with other people and at the same time learn a lot of new stuff...
I could also teach you horseback riding or some photography stuff and I always appreciate it to learn more about Photograpy myself!:)
Would be great to meet someone who likes rock climbing...
I could also teach you how to knit and flax weaving (at least the basics). I can show you how to bake a really easy but super yummi bread.
