About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making ordinary work life more interesting with little every day adventures

ABOUT ME

I´m a photographer based in Vienna and specialised in underwater photography. For now I mostly take pics of little Nirvana babies, but hopefully there are gonna be some ship wrecks, Nemos and Doris in the future.
When I´m not under water I enjoy looking at it from a beach or a lakeshore. Unfortunately there aren´t any of the first ones in Austria. That´s why I love to pack my bags as often as I can and travel to anywhere, where I can sit on the shore, listen to the waves and chase away sea gulls.
I couldn´t picture life without my friends. I only have a few of them, but I really can count on them. That does´t mean that I don't like to meet new people. I love listening to crazy, funny, sad or extravagant life stories and getting inspired by all the amazing people out there.

PHILOSOPHY

All you have to do is get out of the car, and things come to you. It never fails It´s just a matter of getting out of the car. -Tim Brookes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I signed up a couple of years ago, but never really used it. Maybe that´s gonna change.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Enjoyed a couple of kickball games and one interesting Capture the flag game organized via CS in Vienna

Interests

I could live off a backpack full of books, a camera, a world map, couple of good movies, a pair of Converse shoes and chocolate milk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cuddling a Koala, ziplining through the jungle, flying an motor glider and celebrating New Year´s eve in Rome with ten friends are just a few awesome things I experienced in my life. I´m a lucky girl!
