CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying summer time

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going person who doesn't get all worked up about small things, but who rather focuses on all the good. Still, I get a little restless sometimes when I think of all the things I haven't done yet, all the places I haven't been to, all the people I haven't met... and time just flies!!
So, what choice do I have but to just get out there? ;)

Here's a map of the countries that I've already visited:

PHILOSOPHY

Serendipity is when you find things you weren't looking for because finding what you are looking for is so damn difficult.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Working for a youth magazine as editor-in-chief

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to make Palatschinken ("Austrian pancakes") or some other Austrian food for you! :) I could also give you tips on travelling in the United States since I lived there for a year. Or how about a German or Russian lesson?
