My name is Stephanie and I'm 25 years old. I grew up in Hamburg, Germany.

After I finished Highschool I lived in NYC for three and a half years. Two of those years I worked as an Au Pair and the other 18 months I was studying Criminal Justice at the Borough of Manhattan Community College. It was the time of my life! Two years ago I came back to Germany, got a real job and my own apartment. It was not until recently that I realized how boring and unfulfilling my life is, so I decided to take a world trip.

So here I am trying to leave everything behind and travel the world.

I'm a very neat and open-minded person. I try to be respectful towards everyone and I'm very grateful for everyone who let's me crash on their couch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to travel the world and get to know a lot of interesting people and of course because I really need to save money :)
