About Me

I can not hot guests at the time because I will be traveling until October, If you are planning to come to Vienna after the 15th of October feel free to contact me. :-)

I´m a singer. I love my job and the best thing about it is, that I can have any hair color I like. I think I already had all the colors there are ones hair can have: green, blue, purple, pink, turquoise, red, blond, gray, white, orange, copper, black, brown...

I don´t care about fashion, I want to wear what I like.

I´m open minded and curious, very chaotic (unfortunately) and clumsy, but also strong and energetic.

If you wanna surf my couch you need to know two things:

First: Don´t ask to stay with me during weekends. I´m a singer and the means I´m never home Friday or saturday, so I won´t be able to host on weekends.

Second: I won´t host people who don´t bother to take the time to completely fill out their profile here or to write a personal message. Just some copy-paste lines like "I´ll be in Vienna that day, can you host me." are not going to be enough, sorry.

If there´s other things you want to know - just ask me, I´m happy to answer your questions. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always stayed in Hostels and tried to find nice people to hang out with, but I always wished, there was an easier possibility to meet people who actually live in the country or town I visit, get to know them, find out about how they live and share some time. I hoped to find that here and the first experiences I made were - as mentioned before - wonderful.

Interests

It´s my live and still I´m not tired of it: music
I also like to swim, cycle and I´d like to find out mor about GeoCaching.
I´m always interested in trying new things.
LARP is the most special interest on my list.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have no TV, but I love to read all kinds of books, but the most I live fantasy. When I´m reading I love to forget everything around me and to enter a new world.

My favorite movies are movies like "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" "The Boondock Saints", "What Dreams May Come" or "Lemony Snickets"

And about music - there´s not much I don´t like. Just try me and find something! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don´t know - things I do seem pretty common to me but i guess this is, because they are my life. If they would happen to somebody else I probably would think "Wow!" ;)
I lived in 5 places till now, 6th one is coming up, I´ve been to about 20 countries all over Europe, but left the continent only thrice.
I love to travel alone - you get to know more people, con be more spontanous and are more flexible.
I´ve been to New York on my own, people back home said, I was crazy but it was just amazing.
I´ve been to the Eurovision Song Contest as a Backing Vocalist, I sang at a "Schützenfest" in Brasil, I started to learn how to play the Violin last year and now I also try to play Irish Flute.
I watched my boyfriend participate at the Breamar Gathering and I tried to toss a cabber myself.
And once I climbed the roof of a house ´cause I left my key inside the flat.

Teach, Learn, Share

I´d love to make music with people.
I´d love to learn how they enjoy live.
I´d like to learn about their country and what´s special about living there.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can sing you songs, cook you a nice austrian meal (Kaspressknödl for example) and according to my boyfriend I bake really good cake.
Let´s talk about life and what makes our worlds go round - I think that´s the most rewarding thing about couchsurfling. :)
