Hello I'm Michael, 27 years old and studied educational sciences in Vienna. I consider myself a very friendly and polite person, always curious to learn about the people and world around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly to meet some amazing people, and listen to great travel stories. :)

Interests

I really like to learn about different cultures. Thats one of the reasons why I love to travel. Besides that in my free time I like to do sports (e.g. Tennis, Badminton), spend time in nature, meditation and generally trying out new things.
Besides that I also enjoy cooking, mainly vegetarian though.
And in addition to travelling I really like to learn and talk about psychology as well.
Also Im pretty much always up for some deep talk, since I feel you can never learn enough about life and people's views of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like movies of Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve. Still have quite a big watchlist of movies that I want to see though. If you have any recommendations Im happy to add some more movies to the list.
Musicwise I enjoy listening to 90s/00s Rap/Rock. But also some Classical every now and then, as well as traditional music from MiddleEast and Asia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

6 months solo-travelling on four continents, including all kinds of adventures :D. (Bungee-Jumping, biggest swing in the world, sharkcage-diving).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a friendly and humble guest. At the same time I will be curious to learn more about the hosts and the culture they live in. While also being happy to share about my own culture and travel stories.
