Hey

My name is Katja, I am 26 years old, half German, half Swiss. I haven’t been using this app since 2018 when I was traveling through New Zealand. 7 long years! In the meantime I established some real „adult“ life that my 18 year old self couldn’t have imagined. (Meaning I got a degree & a job - an everyday life basically.) Anyways I didn’t lose my adventuresomeness and often miss traveling without having any plans. That's why I promised myself to go to another country this summer: I want to learn Italian in Rome. It might be a stupid plan for the heat and the fact that most of the Romans are on holiday during August. But I am sure there are cool places and people to meet. Maybe suffering unites. And I could really use some locals who know their way around in Rome!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people and - to be honest, to save money too

Music, Movies, and Books

Herman Hesse, Martin Walser, Tolstoi, Dostojewskij, Murakami (but can’t say I have read more than 2-3 books of each author - except for Hesse whom I love deeply)
The bible remains the best book though

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can be a good company, but also enjoy being alone, so don't wonder if I am not always talkactive.
