About Me

Heyyo, I am just a young German lady that doesn't know what she is doing with her life, but enjoys exploring and traveling. I am studying International Relations at the moment, but actually I am just trying to do something that makes me happy. I am looking for the meaning in life and if someone has found it, just let me know. Besides that I am an open-minded person, mostly interested in everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has been a great possibility for me to connect with locals and to get to know places from a different perspective than just that of a tourist. I live sharing experiences, stories, food, knowledge and exploring.

Interests

I love cooking and eating with friends. Trying out new foods and grocery shopping.
I love exploring whether through my lens or without.
Nothing better than deep talks while sitting outside during a warm summer night, having a glass or wine and a good connection, talking about God and life and whatever else.
I'm up for basically anything.
