About Me

I'm a 22-year old student living in Oldenburg, Germany. Right now I'm in the third semester in becoming a teacher studying German and "Werte und Normen" (mostly ethics, philosophy and religion in one subject combined). I'm a newbie with couchsurfing and traveling, but I'm digging the idea and wanna make my first experiences traveling through cities. I can be super out-going, laughing all the time and making stupid jokes, but that doesn't mean you can't have some serious convos with me aswell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on the big adventure of finding myself (i know, sounds pathetic), but I want to step out of my comfort zone, get to know new people, see cities, get insider information. I don't want to stay in an anonymous hotel, I want 3am talks with a wine in the kitchen.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love listening to (german) hip hop, trap, rap, folk and techno, but i barely dislike any music (except for Schlager! No tolerance for Helene Fischer!)
Favorite movies would be Harry Potter (pretty boring, huh?), Lord of the Rings and all kind of Disney Movies. Got a big deficit: haven't watched a lot of typical movies nearly everyone likes (the godfather, star wars, butterfly effect, fight club,...) really need to catch up on that, haha! But I'm super easy to startle, so no horror movies!
Always loved reading, especially "philosophical" books and "easy" literature aswell as some classics. Unfortunately thanks to my studying I'm reading a lot so I prefer to watch netflix in my freetime over reading even more

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- went on a trip into the woods for a few days and wandered dancingly around a lake through the rain with the best mood ever
- saw Alligators in the Everglades and watched Manatees eat (honestly, cutest thing ever)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm baking the best brownies and chocolate cupcakes (though those recipes aren't secret, but still)
