A pensive realist who's still shaping (figuring out) their adulthood. I'm a genderqueer pansexual relationship anarchist and use they/them pronouns. Living outside of the city center in Cologne Kalk in a shared house with 5 others. Nerdy, pacifistic, queer feministic, animal and music loving, clumsy thingy. Constantly trying to improve my lifestyle – consuming less and better, e.g. (food)sharing, buying more local, fairtrade, biological, vegan, zero waste or second hand products and food.

Passionate caregiver. Dreaming of founding a place with other socially-engaged people with an interest in gastronomy. Combining a café, a pub with hot food and a space for concerts/art/workshops. With payment based on voluntary donations (pay what you want/can). Having socially disadvantaged people among the co-workers and guest. Plan B would be some sort of service to create and assist inclusive flat/house-sharing communities. Also would love to adopt/co-parent a child with a disability somewhen in the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes I'm looking for a place to sleep, when I'm traveling to events (music or Shibari) in Germany/the Netherlands/Belgium or just need to get out of my daily life for a short while (mostly hiking).

In love with music of all different kinds. Grew up with rock, atm more listening to pop and punk.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love nature, so I would love to go hiking together!
I can show you some nice restaurants, alternative markets and "nightlife" locations in (some parts of) Cologne, but I'm not that familiar with popular places/history etc. But if you're planning to do a little sight seeing tour – I'd love to join, so I can enlarge my knowledge! ;)
Of course I'll help you with the German language, if it's necessary! Also I'm trying to improve my English.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love grocery shopping and (vegan) cooking for people who host me. I'm a fan of all sorts of cards/board/communication games!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Scotland
