My name is Sophia and I am a 30 years old veterinaria originally from Berlin now living close to the Baltic Sea in the northern part of Germany.
Between two jobs, I very spontaneously started my journey through South America in June and would love to travel to Patagonia by the end of the year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Many great experiences that friends had made with Couchsurfing which they told me about, and the desire to be able to delve a little deeper into the culture of the country I am traveling to and hopefully get an authentic insight into people lives and what they care about.
