I like travelling, especially to the UK, but also to other places in the world. I'm an Irish Dancer, amateur chef, gamer, redditor and teacher. I'd like to meet new people and learn about their culture!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It seems so much more interesting than staying in a hotel :-)

Interests

Well, I'm interested in many things. I love listening to and making music, playing computer but also board games, taking photos, English linguistics, chocolate, Irish Dancing, web comics, cooking and baking, movies and series and so much more...

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music I love Radiohead, Oceansize, Why?, Boards of Canada and everything related.

Crazy about films and good drama series like Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, House of Cards, Sherlock, etc. Also enjoying humour i.e. Arrested Development, Black Books, IT Crowd, Monty Python, numerous stand-up peeps.

When it comes to books I read mostly English literature. I'v recently been reading lots of Neil Gaiman. Pretty good stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2011 I did an intership at a Chinese school for 5 weeks. It was one of the most intense things I've done. Absolutely amazing.

Also, cycling along the Wild Atlantic Way at Ireland's westcoast was pretty awesome. Despite the rain and the wind the scenery was impressive.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a native speaker of German, but I'm fluent in English, too. I can do whatever the internet has taught me and I consider fun: cooking, baking, knitting, juggling, have recently started getting into digital art.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share the passion for the things I love. We can probably have a good conversation. I might be able to teach you some German. Or even English :-P
