Open minded, authentic person always searching for adventures, challenges, new people to meet and new things to learn. I believe in travelling as the best education and encountering other cultures equally, with respect and empathy, as the way to do it.

After High School, aged 19, I cycled across New Zealand for 6 months working/ wwoofing on farms.
Returned home, started University (B.Sc. Sports, Business and Law in Bayreuth) and began learning Portugese.
After 4 semesters at home I'm now on an exchange in Santa Catarina, Brazil, until Dec 2018.
In January I'll be heading to HCMC, Vietnam, for an internship before returning to University to finish my studies.

Basically seizing every opportunity to spend time abroad, I love it so much!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Intercultural exchange, like-minded people.
Trusting in the good :)

Interests

I love animals, nature and I'm a huge sport fanatic.
Especially road cycling, running and swimming (do triathlons at home), actually outdoor sports in general.
Love hammoks and cuddling with dogs and cats

Grew up with dogs, learned how to ride horses as a kid and fell in love with endurance riding during my time in NZ.

So, basically, I'm more the 'waterfalls, star-gazing and deep talks at the bonfire'-person than party animal.
I don't drink (maybe a beer for special occasions), don't smoke and don't do drugs.
