About Me

What can I tell about myself?!
Well I'm a 22 year old student that is kind of bored of Germany so I take every opportunity to go and see something of the world and meet new and positive people (yes we do have lots of grumpy people here, no wonder with all the rain I guess haha)

After school I went to Cali for a few months and worked at a cattle ranch which was the best time of my life so far, we had a zoo there with llamas, emus and so on..
After this time I worked in Italy for two months and trained horses at a small tourists place close to Florence.
Instead of starting to study after that I decided to go back to Cali cause I loved it too much.. actually felt a bit home sick so I couldn't wait to get back there!!

At some point I started studying environmental management which didn't keep me away from traveling again so last year I worked at a lodge in Namibia for 2 months as a guide for horse back safaris

This year I went on a roadtrip with my best friend through the US and we had a wonderful time with all the great hosts we had! Thanks again guys for all the advices and laughter that you shared with us! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My best friend and I planned to do this huge roadtrip through 6 states for more than a year now and because of my exams she has all the fun for herself to find hosts for us during our stay

Just want to take some of it away from her to find a good reason not to study all day long!!

Interests

good beer. horse riding of course. travels. reading especially dystopias. gaming. dancing as if no one sees me. singing loudly to music in the car. watching series (walking dead is still the best). barbecues with friends. sleeping.

Music, Movies, and Books

Series are the better movies but nothing can make you think more than a good end of a movie!

Actually pretty open with my music taste, as long as it fits the situation and I can sing or dance around!

If I could choose one book it would always be Harry Potter! (Sorry, too hard to pick out one of them so quickly)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pick one out:

Putting my fist in the mouth of a drugged cheetah

Helping with castration of bulls in Cali

Or just hoping to find a good job after studying environmental management?

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to meet people that can teach me something new! If it's a new language, something about your culture, a good recipe or just great stories about places you've been to!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can "offer" you lots of sarcasm (as if you'd have a choice on that), an easy-going type of girl that is flexible and lots of laughter!
I like cooking and my best friend as well so if you're interested we'd definitely try our best to perform some German magic in the kitchen!
