Hey There Couchsurfers,
I am Helene, 21 years old and currently living in Innsbruck, Austria. I study Geology and I work at an outdoor apparel store.

I love spending time outdoors and meeting people who share that passion !
Running is my favourite sport but during the winters I love to hit the slopes and get some good skitouring adventures in as well.

I am open-minded, down-to-earth and considerate and I like to appreciate the little things in life.

Also I am a huge peanut butter and coffee enthusiast :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe couchsurfing is a great opportunity for solo travelers like me to get real cultural insights off the beaten tracks, to share stories about travelling and adventures and to look at things form entirely new angles.

Interests

• running
• camping
• skiing
• backcountry camping
• hiking,

Music, Movies, and Books

I love listening to Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, Black Keys, RHCP, Royal Blood.....

(and a fair amount of D'n'B when I go for runs ;) )

My favourite author is Carlos Ruiz Zafón

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Overnight backcountry skiing trips and in general anytime I got to spend multiple days in the mountains. Or maybe a canoe trip in Ontario ?

Teach, Learn, Share

I am eager to learn about other people's professions, insights, believes...
Since I study Geology I can come up with a fun fact about stones every once in a while in exchange ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I usually don't travel without European/Austrian chocolate or candy and I really like cooking some of our traditional meals (dumplings, dumplings and even more dumplings).
I am a very helpful person so if there's anything I can do to help (cooking, grocery shopping, finally organize the CD collection alphabetically....) please let me know !
