About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding my life's purpose, by listening to the heart!

ABOUT ME

I'm an independent, happy, non-smoking girl and always up to participate in local life. I'm having as much fun in life as I possibly can! Taking and creating chances as they come.

I´ve been traveling (and working) around the world for the past 3 years and it's been one great adventure:)
Traveling and meeting (local)people everywhere is one of the greatest gifts.

Currently trying to figure out what I want in my life. Listening to my heart, doing only things that make me happy.

PHILOSOPHY

Go with the flow! Even if the flow is not going the way I expected...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´ve done surfing in New Zealand and Candada so far and also have been to local meetings. I'll definately host as soon as I have my own place somewhere. It's an amazing oppertunity to meet people, both locals & travellers to exchange experiences. I've met some very lovely, helpful and generous people and shared great stories along the way!

Interests

I'm constantly trying to find a balance between being active (hiking, running, biking, snowbaording etc.) and relaxing (reading, yoga, having a wine). I absolutely love cooking & baking! So I always get very excited if people have a good equipped kitchen:) Feel free to use mine!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working and traveling around New Zealand was an amazing experience. Being able to hike and bike in the mountains while sleeping in the huts was my favourite!!

And just traveling around the world by myself has been a life changing adventure!
