IMPORTANT: Unfortunately I cannot host right. In the end of June 2024 cancelled my residency in Munich.
Since then I have lived as a digital nomad, working remotely, traveling alone and staying in hostels, AirBnBs and hotels.

I have a challenge, that I would like to share with the Couchsurfing-Community:

Hello everybody,

I am Natalie and will travel to Lincoln, Nebraska, soon.
There is a gravel bike camp taking place in Lincoln, Nebraska at the end of April (April 24th to 27th, 2025) and where I would like to participate in.

Unfortunately, no gravel bikes will be rented out or equipment provided during the camp.
And since I am currently traveling and working remotely, I don't have a bike with me.
So I am now searching for a Bike rental opportunity in Lincoln, Nebraska or close to Lincoln (Norfolk, Omaha etc.).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able so far to find one. 🙃

Does someone of you know a bike rental shop in or near Lincoln, that would offer gravel bikes for rental?
Or does someone of you have any idea how to organize a gravel bike (and transport to the camp in Lincoln)?

With this camp, I wanted to fulfill a dream of finally learning to ride a race/gravel bike. 🤩 This idea has been on my mind for several years.

I'm really looking forward to your feedback. 😊 You can also directly write me a PN.
Thank you in advance and best regards, 🙏🏻
Natalie

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Perpetual traveling alone without a homebase, company or an inner circle of friends can be challenging sometimes. Especially in my present life situation as perpetual traveller I noticed that good company and real social interactions are meaningful and rare at the same time.
I started with Couchsurfing long ago before the Pandemia and I am remembering right now, that I had excellent experiences on Couchsurfing so far, even allowing me to make friends.
Life is making friends and growing as a person, understanding the people and the way of life.
The years of Pandemia were challenging and I lost the trace of Couchsurfing.
But my life is actually traveling, so I want get back on my track.

Interests

More of my interests are learning languages (it's so fun for me), I like badminton, watching the sea, in Human Design I am manifestor with 4/6 profile, going for a walk through forests.

Arts, including photography, creative writing, painting and drawing are other fields of interest of me and I am searching for inspiration and outstanding artists to meet and be creative in company.
Recently, I discovered my interest in Street and Urban Art and found pleasure in studying this.

I like sports, swimming, biking trips, yoga and running. When possible, I prefer running through the woods.
