Overview
About Me
Hey there,
i came to Graz to study social pedagogy....14 years later i'm still here, because this lovely city is such a good place to live and to be!:-) Now, i work as a caregiver in a flat for people with mental and multiple disabilities.
I always loved to travel, but since 2015 even more. I met this awesome guy....my boyfriend since then!:-) Arnaud is a passionate traveler since ever, photographer and actually from France. One year after we met we moved together in a common flat in Graz! I'm so thankful that i met him there, in this crazy week in Korsika! Happy to share our passion to be on the road.....with the motorcycle, the car, the plane, the bycicle or even on our feet (still dreaming about sailing), we live for the small things in life that really count!Including good food, good talks, meet new people with different cultures and enjoying life by discovering new places.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I really like the open-minded idea of couchsurfing...it's just enriching in so many ways and such a good way to travel and meet people!:-)
