Overview
About Me
My boyfriend and I traveled a lot through Couchsurfing, Helpx, and other great exchange programs full of generous and open-minded people. I've settled down in Germany, and would love to continue the cycle of sharing and exchange. I am a freelance video editor and yoga teacher with a flexible schedule and lifestyle. I love singing, playing guitar, photography, sketching, hiking, and swimming in the ocean. I love to learn and collaborate, musically and artistically, as well as share any skills that I can.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to meet and work with people who share a curiosity for the world and inspire creativity in people. Through two years of spontaneous, free-style international travel, the deep connections I shared with fellow travelers and hosts are absolutely priceless.
Hosting:
For the first time in a few years I finally have a pretty stable living situation where I can host people. My boyfriend and I live in Eberswalde, a quiet town north of Berlin that is about 30 min away by train. I'd love to host people who are open-minded, healthy (please no smokers or binge drinkers) and creative and would like to collaborate on artistic or musical projects. We can go to Berlin and attend/perform at Open Mics, go ecstatic dancing, or enjoy a nice hike and conversation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Most recently: Visiting Egypt, performing at Open Mics in Los Angeles, hiking and camping for 10 days in the Italian Dolomites, experiencing the European Rainbow Gathering, working on permaculture farms in Belgium, and hitchhiking across Morocco.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Yoga and breathing meditation techniques. I would like to hear about your life and countries you've visited. I am an amateur singer/guitarist, so I'd love to learn any techniques you'd like to share.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can teach yoga, meditation and breathing techniques to help improve calmness, sleep, and anxiety. As a native Chinese and English speaker, I can also provide language exchange. I would also love to share my travel experiences, and hear about yours!
