Hi! I'm currently on a gap year working as an au pair outside of Hamburg, Germany. I'm someone who loves to travel and have new experiences - I'm looking to start my university bachelor program next year in Berlin.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in taking short weekend trips to different cities nearby to explore a bit of the culture and atmosphere! I love meeting new people and making new friends wherever I go.

my favorite book is A Little Life! I love poetry collections and short stories

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I almost died from anaphylactic shock while abroad but somehow survived despite communicating in a second language - ask me about it ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am proficient in German (have been learning it for 5 years and am currently getting my B2 certificate!); I speak it daily here for my job as an au pair (for the past 6 months) and hope to live here full-time in the future. I can understand most conversations in German provided they are not about something obscure! I love art, literature, languages, and music.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a pretty relaxed person and some of my favorite moments have been shared over a cup of coffee or a meal. I like to bake and maybe I could make something yummy for you :-)

Countries I’ve Visited
