ABOUT ME

Literature student with an interest for fine arts. Used to study biotech, but turns out I really don't like numbers, I am all about letters I guess. Therefore I try to read a lot if I am not out with friends, doing stuff, like not drinking or having any fun. Working in a hostel on the side and truly love my job, getting in touch with the world on a regular basis, hosting cooking events, inviting friends to our little bar at the reception; it's one of my favorite places in Berlin and on earth.

PHILOSOPHY

"'Cause I'm gonna die, with a twinkle in my eye, 'cause I sang songs, spun stories, loved, laughed and drank wine!"
The Wine Song by The Cat Empire

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that you get more out of traveling crashing at a locals place, because only then you get to feel the vibes of the city, the people and an insight in how people in that city live and that's simply the experience I am looking for when traveling, as simple as that.
