CURRENT MISSION

to reflect light

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Rachel and i'm currently studying in Germany for the year to learn about German culture as well as the language. I was born and raised in Sydney, Australia and am a Christian :)

I've always been fascinated with traveling, languages seeing and experiencing other cultures. I want to see the world and experience all cultures!

I love to talk to people and am a cheery person, who may some times, when feeling quite comfortable with the people around me, break out into interpretative dance :)

PHILOSOPHY

To shine light into this world

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only surfed, mainly because where I live there's no room for people to stay. In Australia I have 2 flatmates and they're not so keen on hosting Couch surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before I left for my European trip, a flat mate told me about the idea of Couchsurfing. Now, I have surfed with several people and have loved every experience so far. All of them have been really welcoming, friendly and so hospitable. There is not one bad thing I could say about the people and the concept.

Interesses

When I have free time I like to sew and bake. There's a strange satisfaction in baking something completely unhealthy, yet so delicious and completing something that you have worked so long on.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

The Pianist, The Bourne Identity and mostly 'different' kinds of films. I do quite like films that are not your run-of-the-mill, by the numbers, sappy films. But I suppose it depends on the mood i'm in. I suppose that would be classified as 'foreign films'

Music: I mostly like European Metal, the melodic kinds although I do like a bit of indie here and there as well as a bit of non-melodic metal. After spending a year in Germany, I have also acquired a bit of a taste of electro.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Climbing a volcano in Iceland and once at the top, seeing ruins from an old village and mountains that looked so close, yet were a great distance away.
