About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the most out of life!

ABOUT ME

What do you need to know about myself? I think there is no need to say, that I am an open-minded and adventurous girl, otherwise you wouldn't find me on couchsurfing. The same applies for my beloved travelling. After my round the world trip in 2012/2013 I fell in love with travelling. My friends and family are complaining about the fact that I am never at home. I love cooking, especially with friends. It relaxes me and there is a lot of time for good talks and in the end everybody can enjoy a delicious meal. But not only friends and food are important for me, sports is it as well. When in Berlin I do Crossfit because there are no mountains an no sea around unfortunately because I love hiking and surfing. And I am always pleased if someone wants to join me or show me something new :)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get to know different people, have interesting talks, learn more about their culture and their lifestyle (considered from another perspective). It is all about sharing experiences, knowledge, thoughts and memories.

Interests

Ok, I've already mentionnned it above but besides travelling I love doing sports. In my home country Austria I love to do outdoors, in Germany where I am currently living Crossfit is my drug. Food is also quite important for me. But it is not all about the food. It is about sharing good food with great people. I am not a real city person, that's why I enjoy to be in nature. And ask myself why the hell I ended up in Berlin. ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite music and books change all the time. It depends on my mood. You can say that I am listening to every kind of music. I am not picky at all. Reading takes an important part in my life. I've been loving reading since I was able to read. I am keen to share music and book recommendations with other people. You're wondering that I haven't talked about movies yet? Hm, to be honest, I always fall asleep when watching a movie. Latest after 40 minutes....;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Only one thing? Are you serious? Maybe it is trekking Mt. Rinjani with my boyfriend by ourselves. We didn't take a guide and porter and lost our way in the beginning. In the middle of nowhere we met a crazy guy (he really was!) with snarled hair, a chainsaw in his left and a machete in his right hand. He promised to show us the way when we give him money for cigarettes. We agreed because we didn't have another choice and walked criss-cross for half an hour. In the end we found ourselves at the path to Rinjani! Awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn? Surprise me!

Teach? Cooking Austrian dishes, funny 'Austrian-German' words, ... I don't know... I am sure there is something I can teach you and the other way around.
