Beschreibung

Hi there! We are David and Maraike, a 20-year-old couple from Germany, currently exploring Australia on a backpacking adventure. We began our journey in Melbourne and have been traveling up the east coast to Sydney in our van which we then sold. We’re an energetic and open-minded duo who love meeting new people, learning about different cultures, and sharing our own traditions. Whether it’s telling you about life in Germany, cooking traditional meals, or introducing you to our customs, we’re always happy to connect.

Our Story and Passions
David is a passionate lifeguard who has worked with the German Lifeguarding Services, keeping an eye on swimmers at pools and beaches, as well as teaching kids how to swim. When it’s time to unwind, he loves to pick up his ukulele and play for a while.
Maraike has been playing handball since she was six years old. In Germany, it’s a very popular sport, and she’s proud to have coached others during her voluntary year at a handball association. She also plays in a family marching band and treasures the joy of making music together. In quieter moments, you’ll often find her crocheting or getting lost in a good book.
We’re both music lovers and listen to just about everything, though we often enjoy pop and exploring other people’s favorite playlists. When it comes to movies, we’ve been working through the Marvel storyline and can’t wait to revisit classics like Star Wars and Harry Potter. As for books, David enjoys fantasy novels and is currently reading The Emperor of All Maladies, while Maraike’s love for romantasy has her devouring the Kill the Queen series.

Our Australian Adventures
One of our favorite memories so far was celebrating Maraike’s 20th birthday in Melbourne. We had an incredible day at the AFL Grand Final festival, followed by a lively bar crawl and a magical visit to the Silver Circus. For Maraike, another unforgettable experience was feeding kangaroos at a wildlife park on Phillip Island. They were so sweet and gentle, it was hard to leave them!

What We Can Offer We’re friendly, hardworking, and always eager to help. Whether it’s joining in on a game night, cooking, or lending a hand with cleaning or repairs, we’re happy to contribute. Spending time with others, sharing experiences, and creating memories together are what we value most.

We look forward to meeting you and making great connections along the way!
