Hi :)

I'm from Australia, but I'm taking the opportunity to take some time off a career-job to travel, learn German and live a little bit of life. I'd like to live and work in Germany for a few years after I get to B2 level German. I was in Dusseldorf for 2 months, traveled for two months in Europe and am now currently in Munich until the end of April. I'm planning to go to Berlin for 2 months in May-June and then who knows!

I am looking to stay somewhere from 10-16 April in Munich, and then from the end of April for 1-2 months in Berlin before I find some longer term accommodation there.

Please feel free to contact me if either of these fit in with you - I can help with your English - maybe you can help with my German :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hosted a room on Air BnB in Australia and really enjoyed the opportunity to meet like minded travelers. I am keen on trying this platform firstly to stay - and then maybe to host if I eventually organise a place I can share too.

My plan is to stay in different German cities while trying to learn German in schools. I appreciate the the opportunity to stay with locals - or people who know some of the better sights to see in their town. I also enjoy meeting new people are learning a little from them. Hopefully I can share my experience with you too.

Interests

I like to live a healthy lifestyle but also get out for a beer or coffee.
I am really enjoying learning German I like reading, meeting new people, traveling, attempting to cook, keeping fit, but the list goes on :)

• animals
• cooking
• beer
• coffee
• running
• reading
• traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm currently reading a book in German for children - but am actually enjoying the story! :) Recent books I read were girl on a train, gone girl, and The Book Thief - all great.
I just watched the Matrix in German too - sorry Neo is just not the same with German voice dubbing. Favourite series - Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, House of Cards.
I like electronic music - but enjoy listening to all music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sold my things in Australia and moved to Germany - amazing or crazy?
I just snowboarded for the first time..ever...at age 30 - that is pretty amazing

Teach, Learn, Share

I can educate you on all things Australian. Maybe even teach you how not to get bitten or eaten by our dangerous animals when you travel there...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help with your English :)
I'm responsible so can contribute to cooking, cleaning and keeping your couch in top condition :)
Encourage you to come for a run with me.
A few beers and my story.
