About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying out everything that I can't do back in Europe: Buffalo Stew, Moose burgers, Hockey games, beer that tastes like water (seriously: what's up with that, North America??? ;) )

ABOUT ME

What I'm like...

I'm a 25 year old student and a "Berliner" by heart. That means I'm laid back, easy maintenance, sociable and constantly looking for new experiences. I adore my city and I guess it has formed me the way I am: Curious to discover new things, places and people as well as eager to see all the great things this world has to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Stay thirsty, my friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend once told me that having a Couchsurfer stay at your place can be like going on vacation. I've always been a person who enjoys having people staying at my place and showing them around in my city. Since I'm travelling through North America in November I decided to make my room available for Couchsurfers from all over the world during that time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still a Couchsurfing rookie, meaning I don't have any "official" CS experience. But I'm more than willing to change that in the future by hosting and surfing!
