Hi, I'm Marlene, 27, and about to finish my degree in architecture in Mainz.

Before I write my thesis I wanted to give my mind a break .
As always, the most wonderful aspect of my trips for me are the people I get to meet along the way.

Intereses

I have ADHD and tend to hyperfocus on a new interest every couple weeks; this year it has been plane crashes, Chernobyl, and the gym. You can guess which one I'm most grateful for. (I'm still a total beginner though)

• culture
• architecture
• yoga
• meditation
• hiking
• languages
• philosophy
• psychology
• art museums
• east asia

Algo increíble que he hecho

I travelled around the world for half a year when I was 18. I had so many interesting experiences and many memorable adventures, like biking along the Californian coast for a day or sleeping in a mountain cabin in Taiwan. In the end, the most memorable experiences for me are always the conversations I get to have with other people.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

After my gap year, I studied East Asian Sciences in my hometown Heidelberg, learning as much as I could about Japan, Korea, China, and Taiwan. It felt in a way like looking into a warbed mirror. The differences between our cultures taught me a lot about humanity as a whole. I learned that we are far more similar than we are different and that our lifes quality doesn't depend only on where we are, but primarily on who we spend our time with.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I consider myself a very flexible person. Whether you prefer to spend a lot or a little of your time with me, I am happy to adapt to your lifestyle. I do love a good conversation, but I am also an expert at wandering around on my own. I prefer calmer activities as I get easily overwhelmed in groups of people.
