About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning and experiencing everything there is about life!

ABOUT ME

If there is anything in the world that I really love, it is travelling. For me, there is no better way to get to know other countries, cultures, languages and myself. I enjoy meeting new people, experiencing unbelievable beautiful things and feeling free.
Sadly enough you can't always be on the road, so I am a student (Cultural Studies and Economics) at the moment.

In the past five years I have gained a lot of experiences when it comes to meeting other people and cultures. While backbacking in NZ and OZ I often stayed at houses from persons I barely knew or lived with "Woofing" families. I had fantastic times so that it was only a question of time for me to start CouchSurfing :-) Together with a friend I was couchsurfing in Italy in 2012, which enabled me to get to know the Italian lifestyle and lots of wonderful people. While living in Madrid in 2014 I used CouchSurfing as well - the get-togethers with other foreigners in the city were a big help in the beginning!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I have ever seen were the glaciers in the arctic, where I was on an expedition with a skipper.

While I was in New Zealand, I went to the "Waitomo Caves" and did abseiling into an incredible cave which was full of fireflies. No words can describe how wonderful the scenery was.
