About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Travel the world and find a nice spot to stay =) "
Or let me say I really don't have a Mission other than being happy, making memories for life and travelling a lot more and experience so many new things. :)

ABOUT ME

I am 25 year old half Nigerian half-Austrian and born in Vienna. Since my background is multicultural for me there is no one culture, we are all a mix of different cultures. I neither want to be seen as Austrian nor as a Nigerian - I am both and a lot more and I love it.

Everywhere i travel i think that I never really leave those places and also not the people i love there. I take part of them with me and I leave a part of my heart with them.

I lived in the Carribean for 6 months and that gave me so much motivation and made me grow as a person in a way I could have never imagined. Also I lived in Istanbul for 4 months, which was a great experience.

I am a very easy going and open girl who likes to have fun - it can be cooking dinner with my friends, going to the theathre or partying - i like a good mix of it all.

PHILOSOPHY

"Collect moments and not things."

Love. Good Heart. Respect. Find yourself. Travel the world.
"If you think adventure is dangerous. Try Routine it is lethal" - Paulo Coelho

I believe in destiny and the power of the heart. I also believe in Karma - whatever you do in life will come back to you - good or bad. I also believe in Happiness - it is the most important Thing in life. More important than anything else.

NOTE: I do not use Couchsurfing as a dating site - so please don't approach me with inappropriate messages, or when your profile information is nearly none existent! I do not appreciate that at all and I will not answer on those messages.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Meet some Couchsurfers in the carribean and they were great fun and wonderful people, so I decided to try this out. My mum has been Hosting Couchsurfers at our place and this was also a cool experience - getting to know so many new people from all over the world.

Interests

My Number 1 in the world - Travelling. If I am on a journey I always learn so much about myself, my own Country by seeing everything in a new perspective and off course a new culture. If I am at home I am always planning my next journey. My dream is to see as much as I can of this beautiful world.

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”

Dancing is also one of my most favourite things to do. I just love to dance with my friends and have fun. They say People who Dance everyday are happier, and that might be true ;)

I also love writing Poems and short stories.

Music, Cooking - I will definitely cook for my host, and I love to learn to cook dishes i dont know yet.

I love to enjoy life! I don't Need a lot of material things to be happy, I rather travel the world, eat good food, meet interesting people , have meaninful conversations. I love to laugh and have fun - people say they can tell it is me laughing in a mass of people, because the laugh is right from the heart, very contagious and so special.
