Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am bitten by the travel bug. Currently, this minor infection collides with my job, which has been in Nuremberg, Germany, for the last two years. In my daily job I continue "travelling" in thoughts, data and literature from my desk. However, I also cannot stop discovering places, foods, people and things around the world in practice.

Interests

Apart from travelling I love to learn languages, see movies that receive prices from Sundance festivals for example and I cannot live for very long without sports. I did a half marathon two years ago, other than that I like swimming, fitness and yoga. Something that is also very essential in my daily (and non-daily?!!?) life is tasty and good food. Not only that I like (cook and) bake in my spare time. I have been curious enough to try a lot of things, such as Fufu, curries with various parts of Asia as well as French quiches and tartes and Danish smorrebrod. New and shared experiences welcome:-)

Music, Movies, and Books

The last books that I have read apart from work were European philosophers. Art museums are places that I like a lot as well as film festivals and arthouse movie theatres. I am not the person to ask where to go for a good concert, but I am ready to find out for you or to explore myself...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have crossed the Alps in Germany, Austria and Italy on foot in September 2014. That was an amazing experience with beautiful nature and fabulous views, which I can recommend for anybody interested in outdoor things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

One thing I am always up to share are good meals and to cook with or for you. I also like to share proper surroundings and keeping them in that condition. In terms of Nuremberg, I am happy to provide recommendations, especially on good cafés, museums, arthouse movie theaters, restaurants or outdoor things.
