Hej you,
I'm a student in Basel - studying German and Jewish Studies :-)

Passions are writing and taking pictures; two wonderful possibilities which fit perfectly with each other to hold on breathtaking moments. Life ist full of them.
Nature is a thing which I'm absolutely fond of, dancing around on the Slackline, hammock-lover and goats-walker (we've got goats from the Swiss Alps at home which we take out for walks, enjoying fields and forest).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After living in Paris and San Francisco for a few months I definitely need the world. It doesn't matter if I live / travel somewhere in the world or globetrotter come to my home!

My first experience of CS was indeed fabulous :)

Interests

Yoga and Meditation. Tea celebration. Movies and books.

Music is another interest besides writing and photographing: djembe, piano, recorder and singing - to make music is incredibly satisfying. Balancing on the slackline or celebrating the unicycle even with a try of juggling (I still fail with this combination ^^).

Meeting people to satisfy and discover my curiousness in the human being.
