★ CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world! :)

★ ABOUT ME

After having lived in Vienna for five years and worked as an International Key Account Manager in the Telecommunication industry in Vienna I have decided to move back to my hometown in Styria.

Concerning my character I can assert that I'm a very open-minded person. I love to explore and experience other cultures. The more multinational a place is, the more I like it :-)

★ PHILOSOPHY

Life is what YOU make of it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

★ HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate in the CS project by hosting and surfing. I like the fact of sharing experience and of getting to know people from all over the world :)

★ COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I really enjoyed couchsurfing in South East Asia, Central America and all over Europe. It's a great idea to get to know other cultures, languages and different behaviour. Couchsurfing is a great experience which is fantastic for sharing opinions and abilities.

Currently I am hosting people from all over the world who are brave enough to explore the countryside of Styria! :-)
