CURRENT MISSION Want to explore the world, different cultures and make new friends! ABOUT ME I am a Sociology/Cultural Anthropology student from Germany. I love traveling, especially in Asia and India! Now heading towards east Africa. What I find most exciting about traveling is getting to know and experience the local everyday life in different places. I have many hobbies, such as cooking, hiking tracks, photography and have a huge passion for India. PHILOSOPHY Be the change you want to see in the world.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
WHY I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I like to be in close touch with local people. I made such good experiences with CS in the past and made some good friends which whom I still visit and stay in contact with. For example I attended one of my friends wedding one year after we met through Couchsurfing in Agra (India).
Music, Movies, and Books
I have interest in discovering music from around the world and from all genres, and what I listen to on a daily basis also changes very often. I recently discovered Stanley Kubrick, and enjoyed his movies because of the artsy feel of them and the atypical story lines. Guy Richie also makes movies I enjoy for the atmosphere and the music. A movie that recently touched me was Three Billboards outside Ebbing Missouri. For the book part, I like non fictional books the most. That way I can broaden my knowledge.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
The weeding of my friend in India was amazing. Also seeing the more remote places of India like Nagaland was a great experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
One should not be afraid to do uncommon decisions.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I love cooking a good meal with people and maybe learn and teach some new recipe or new technique. I would like to share stories with my host about our travels, adventures and cultures. If you are also into photography we could go for a photographing session through the city at night.
My Interests
I have a passion for India, going back to my first travel there in 2011, and have been back many times since. This time, by coming to East Africa I would like to discover new cultures and meet more awesome people. All the places I have visited, I add my experiences to my sociopolitical knowledge of the world. Everywhere I have been I take a little piece of this place with me by picking up some dishes, music, friendships and memories.
