ABOUT ME

Hey fellow Couch Surfers! We're Julia and Alex, two friends from California studying abroad for the year in Berlin. We like to cook (Alex is vegan, Julia adds cheese and meat), dance, drink and meet new people.

It's time for our semester break here in Berlin, and we're planning a big train trip in celebration. Prague, Budapest, Split, Venice, Florence and Naples. We're looking forward to meeting new people while exploring these great cities!

PHILOSOPHY

See new places, meet new people and try new things...and take the time to enjoy it all.
