My name is Jessy, I‘m 19 years old and I come from the Tirol, the heart of Austria if you are in love with mountains and nature. Currently I am living in Finland for doing a voluntary service where I am working in youth centers and many different schools. I work as an assistant teacher and help organizing some lessons. I am not only working with small children but also with youngsters, adults, elderly and handicapes people as well as with persons with special needs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best thing about travelling is getting to know new cultures (language,food,habits,traditions,..) and thanks to couchsurfing you get the opportunity to even live for some time with and like locals. You can share experiences,tell stories and even create new ones together. Life is about enjoying the moments, emotions and joy and I would like to spread this with others :)

Interests

I am working as a paramedic for the Red Cross Organisation of Austria as same as a leader of the Youth Center of my home village. I am in love with photography, hiking, mountain biking, music, travelling, food and also learning new languages.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love spanish and portuguese music, not only just for listening but also for dancing.
I am playing guitar, piano, ukulele and I love to sing. If I could choose a super power I would love to play every single instrument on earth.

I am a big fan of Walt Disney Movies& songs. I think you can never be too old for them and if someone says something else - he/she is a liar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been on a roadtrip threw Finland, Sweden and Norway during the very cold and dark winter months. Hiking with temperature of -30 degrees, watching Northern Lights burning like fire over the whole sky at the same time with firework on new years eve or hanging out with reindeers and enjoying the beautiful landscape of Scandinavia have been just a few highlights of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always willing and open for creating new skills and interests same as I love teaching some of my skills to other people. I want to become a primary teacher one day where I need those abilities every day.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Something that I always carry with me is my camera, a big smile and open heart as same as Chocolate!! I love to tell stories of my life and also listening to others.
If somebody has some instruments at home ( or even without) I am always up for singing and especially traditional songs and dances.I also know some card tricks and I am always happy if someone can teach me new ones.
