CURRENT MISSION

working on fulfilling a few of my dreams ;)

ABOUT ME

I'm living in Vienna, Austria (nope, there are no kangaroos), but I grew up in a small town in western Austria, next to the lake of constance :).

I'm always open for meeting new people from all over the world, learning more about their countries and lifes, different cultures, exchanging experiences.

Most of the time I'm a positive, energetic and smiling person who is almost anytime motivated to do something (going out, doing sports, chatting, walking around in the city or in nature, ...)
- I'm a real fan of walking through a city late at night or early in the morning - it's amazing!!!
But from time to time I need and really like having time for myself (thinking, reading, dreaming,...) - but don't worry, it's rare ;)!

PHILOSOPHY

that's life ... try to "always look on the bright side of life" (btw: great song)

and of course: "It will be legend - wait for it - dary!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a few couches, met a few people and hosted also.
I made great experiences and I've actually found new friends :)

Interests

travelling, going out and having a good time with friends while drinking 1 or 2 ;) beers, meeting new people, talking (normally i talk a lot :D), watching good movies or reading (always looking forward for recommendations)

I'm enjoying to watch thunderstorms as well as lying in the grass watching the stars or doing nothing =)

cooking: I love to cook with friends and afterwards - of course - eating together ;)! I'm always keen on new recipes (and cooking lessons ;) ) from all over the world
and I would die (no, not really :D - but I like the "drama" in this expression ;) for a great, long BRUNCH :)

Sports: rock climbing, snowboarding, volleyball (just started it and I really love it), jogging (sometimes its boring but its great to calm down), Windsurfing (I tried it twice in Marseille and it's really really cool and I wanna try it again, and again, and again...)
