CURRENT MISSION to be me ABOUT ME my family is a bit crazy. so my mother and father decided that formal education in germany (primary school and high school) is too long and sent me traveling all over the place. I spent a few years in the covered bazaar (Kapali Carsi) in Istanbul, in a small village without running water and electricity in south east of Turkey with my numerous aunties and hundreds of cousins, in the countryside of England and the cold cold St. Petersburg. I love horses and I own a beautiful young Arabian horse which is training to be a racing horse (she is in Qatar right now). I do long- distance riding and any kind of other equestrian sports. The last five years I spent in Istanbul studying and working. I assembled a zoo (two rabbits and two cats), which I will leave my room mates to travel around a bit.
Interested in Cats
Fluent in German

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I had lots of exchange partners and people visiting when I grew up. I am still infected with wanting to have as much visitors as possible and rarely stay alone. Still, couch surfing is new for me.
