About Me

Just moved to the beautiful little town Lenzerheide in Switzerland. I work almost every day but always try to go biking in my lunch breaks or after work.

CURRENT MISSION
To find the best bike trails in the alps

ABOUT ME
I am as I am... Most of the time pretty relaxed, sometimes energetic and sometimes not. I would describe me as a pretty happy and even-tempered person.

I'm german, of course I love beer!
And I'm addicted to chocolate or rather to candies.. and to savory things. Actually I love all kind of food!

I am totally in on any funny or crazy things. I love to go out for sport (snowboarding and downhill mountain biking are my favorites!) or anything in the nature or mountains, but sometimes it's fine just chilling out, watching movies or reading books. But if there is a good Party I will never say no!! :)

PHILOSOPHY

What goes around, comes around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing and hitchhiking are the perfect way for me to travel.

I don't want to stay in a hotel/hostel with other german tourists speaking german. I want to improve my english, meet the local people, do the local stuff and meet new friends! I love to cook and I enjoy to have a kitchen and cooking together.

Since I'm traveling alone I'm happy to share time together but it's ok for me to do my own thing as well. :)

Interests

I love mountains and nature! Hiking, camping and mountain biking in the summer, snowboarding, skiing, telemark skiing in the winter! Just started splitboarding last year - I love it!
Mountains are my passion and I'm the happiest person when I'm in the mountains.

Music, Movies, and Books

I almost like everything, at the moment mainly acoustic music.
At this very moment I'm listening to the "Searching for sugar man" from Rodriguez. Best album ever!!!

The Lumineers, Florence + The Machine, Arcade Fire, Chet Faker, Red Hot Chili Peppers
