The most important thing for me is being happy and being kind.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I GOT TO KNOW COUCHSURFING

In 2012 I worked at a Ranch in Australia. It was a working cattle ranch
and we also went on bush-rides with guests from all over the world.
I met four wonderful couchsurfers there, a couple from Melbourne and
a couple from Montreal.
The hosts invited the couchsurfers to go with them to the ride, so they went
on this great expierience together. I got very interested in the whole couchsurfing idea and I signed up right away.

ME SURFING COUCHES

A few weeks later I traveled up the Australian East Coast with my Austrian friend and on our way we stayed with a great Host in Brisbane.
After that I unfortunately did not surf until 2015. I stayed with Karl in his apartment from December 2015 until February 2016. He is a great guy who basically is the King of Couchsurfing, so I got to know many many couchsurfers during my stay.
I loved to spend time with all of them. We got to exchange our culture and languages, we have shared a lot of memories together, we cooked together, went to bars, played music, ...

MY COUCHSURFERS

In 2013 a girl from India stayed with me and my family for 7 months. It was a great experience.
I also hosted 2 girls from Germany for a week.
During the "Bregenzer Festspiele" (Opera performances on the famous lake stage in my city) I also hosted a couple of couchsurfers.

Intereses

MY PASSIONS

I am very passionate about our BEAUTIFUL EARTH. I try to travel as often as possible so I can get to know many other cultures and to explore all the beautiful places on earth. I enjoy to just sit there and watch the sun set into the ocean and then look at the stars when the night is here. I also like adventurous things like mountainbiking in the alps.
I love taking pictures of all the wonderful places.

MUSIC has always been very important to me. I am singing all day long and I play the piano, the guitar and I am learing to play bass and the ukulele at the moment.

I also love HORSEBACK RIDING. I started when I was a little child. I really enjoy spending time in nature with my horse. A horse going at a full gallop is incredibly fast. It is a wonderful combination of speed, energy beneath you, trust and freedom, it is a little like flying and one of the best feelings on earth to me.

I am a very curious person, I am interested in everything, so I would be happy if you would share your passions with me.
