Hello folks!
My name ist Luisa Valentina, I am a German-Chinese-hybrid and I currently live in Berlin.
I am sometimes very outdoorsy and love to be around nature and people - on the other hand I also enjoy being an introvert and being alone with my thoughts.
I grew up in quite a few places around the globe, collected a few memories &languages and I am now settled down in Berlin for my studies (for the next few years).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new to this hole CS hosting experience but I've been a CS guest quite a few times. I can't wait to travel the world and know at the same time, that there will be friends everywhere! and of course I am also looking forward to those who will stay with me and share all their awesome experiences and stories with me! please read my profile and dont use my home as a mere hotel (would be nice if you responded to something in the descirptions).
I love having guests around and I always try to make them feel as homely and comfy as possible!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I guess nothing too amazing, so here are a few small ones:

I was send on my first flight alone when I was five years old.. that was scary but i made it

Our school once organized a trip to a poor region in Hebei Province (China), where I could be their first foreign English teacher for one class.. it was a lot of fun!
One of the most interesting experiences in my life was a one-month nursing internship at a locked-ward psychiatry.
(and I proudly say that I helped giving birth..)

Teach, Learn, Share

Share your traveling experiences with me! there is always so much more to see! and sometimes it's the little things or the interaction with locals that make a trip truly special - I want to know about the things and people you have encountered!
Teach me languages: I am super language-fanatic and can always use a catch-phrase in a foreign tongue!
also, teach me your best dish! ;)
I don't know if I have a lot to offer, but all my knowledge shall be yours also!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A welcoming environment, a guide to Berlin's best clubs, restaurants, parks n activities!
