HI! My name is Alyssa, I’m currently living in Heidelberg, after a 6 months trip in Japan and Vietnam. I love meeting new people and learning about different cultures, speaking languages and FOOD (preferably with wine). I look forward to meeting you! =)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Any German speakers or Japanese speakers with unlimited patience?

(Recent) philosophy:

To follow my own goals instead of what others expect from me. :)

Couchsurfing philosophy:

Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Language exchange of course (I speak fluent English), but I can also teach you about my culture, cook, bake, walk your kids and care after your dog (or is that the other way around), sing and dance (not all of my skills are equally appreciated). I can also draw your portrait if you like;)
