Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to stay with locals because i love to get some insights on the way of living. Getting to know at least a little bit of the local language and the culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did some exchanges in my life. When i was 16 i stayed one year in Thailand living in an host family and went to school. After finishing high school i went to Ecuador to live there, suddenly shorter than expected due to the Covid Pandemic. Then i lived in Denmark for a year volunteering in a boarding school and during my studies i spent another 4 month in Ecuador volunteering in a local school.

Teach, Learn, Share

Maybe some German? I also now lots of funny games: card games, drinking games ... It will never get boring

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to get to know the people i m staying with. Preparing some German food for them or learn a new dish with them together. I am also aware that i m a guest and pay attention to house rules.
