About Me

Have courage and be(e) kind! 🌻

Love to meet locals, get to know their stories and places to go to.

I work with children from 3 to 6 yrs in an outdoor kindergarten group, so plenty of fresh air and walking for me!
After I finished my job education in 2018, I went to Canada for 8 months, where I tried CS for the first time. Except for 1 person, everyone was so lovely♡ unfortunately, I am not in the position to host at the moment, but I love to meet new people on my travels and maybe even make some friends.

I got my license for riding motorcycles in 2020 and just did an upgrade this year, owning a triumph tiger 800 now. Currently traveling through Scotland with it and my boyfriend Jerome! (august 2024)
We love dogs, a good char, cooking, Volleyball and frequently do trash cleanups

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to meet people is to live with them. Hear their stories, get inspired, spend some time together :)
And it is easy to meet travellers, but even better to be around locals. They know their country best and I love hidden gems!
