About Me

Hi I'm Nicole:-)

I am a down-to earth, cooperative and humorous person. I like to get to know other people and other cultures. I think it is very interesting to meet people with other local customs or lifestyles. I am very openly and like to get inspired by new experiences.
In my job as a nurse in a big hospital I get to know new people every day. I love the work with lots of different people and get to know their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Actually I am new to couch surfing and I can't wait to try it. I think the idea of couch surfing is great, it is an easy way to travel, make new experiences in other countries and come in contact with other people.
In September my best friend and I are traveling to California and we are very excited. We would like to try couchsurfing and see what it has to offer.
I also think it is a good opportunity to improve my English skills.

Interests

I like sports and played soccer actively for the last few years. Unfortunately I had an injury and can't play anymore. But now I like to cycle and hike instead.
As a nurse I am also interested in health care systems in other countries and medical stuff.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very open to any kind of music. Mostly I listen to country and pop music, but get easy inspired by other types of music.
Also I like reading, mostly fiction like crime or medical thrillers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The 007 Bungee Jump from the Verzasca dam. That was a great experience and I would do it again in an instant:-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn languages and things about other cultures and communities. But I also like to show and teach people things about my culture and country.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am an easy person to be with, down-to earth and straightforward. I like to laugh, have fun and enjoy life. I like to have a good time and learn new things.
Although I haven't travelled a lot in my life yet I can share a few experiences.
I would love to give my host an understanding of my Country and what it has to offer. I would even bring some really good Swiss chocolate;-)
