IMPORTANT: I am gone from Vienna for the following:
September 14th-September 23rd
September 26th-September 30th
October 24th-October 27th
November 12th-November 27th
I travel a lot and it is possible that there will be other dates in which I will not be in Vienna to host.
I grew up in a large household, five brother and one sister. My parents did something similar to couchserfing when I was growing up by helping foreigners transition to the area. Many people stayed with us for short periods of time and in turn would teach us about their culture from home. I found the experience very enriching growing up and have always appriciated the value of learning things from different perspectives. I am laid-back and enjoy meeting people, but I am shy by nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet some people and exchange culture and languages! I couchsurfed during my bike tours in the US and Europe and would like to show the same hospitality I received abroad.

Interests

I love biking as it has always cleared my mind. I have a strong interest in agroecology - I love seeing relationships of species and plants. I am a beekeeper on my spare time and have made mead and various liqeuers such as aronia berry, elderflower, elderberry, thistle flower, dandelion and violet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I biked from Minneapolis to Chicago in one week with my three brothers. Here is a link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=II18vsEx53E
I worked at an orphanage in Moldova at age 18 to broaden my understanding of the world. I have been to China to visit friends since the place I grew up was very influenced my Chinese culture. I have and will eat just about anything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I was a cook for a natural grocery store and can share a few good and easy recipes, or cook for the host if interested. I am a good listener and am easy going.
