Hey!

My name is Teresa and I study International Relations in Bremen, Germany. My university is international and hosts citizens from over 110 countries, which is why I am always open to learn more about other cultures, languages and people. I love travelling and seeing new things; I often go away for weekend trips during my uni time. That way, I've been to Paris, Berlin, Edinburgh and Prague. However, there is always more to see and experience.
I play handball in Bremen and I used to say that I play the accordion too, but by now that is mostly boasting because I haven't played in almost two years... oh well, maybe later?

I'm looking forward to meeting new and awesome people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As mentioned above, I'm a student. I love to travel but I'm kinda always broke, so I look for cheap ways to travel. This being one reason why I'm on couchsurfing - but apart from that, I also enjoy meeting new people. When travelling, it is cool not staying in a hostel but meeting locals. Therefore, I always look for possibilities not to see places but people.
