Hello everyone!
I'm Julia from Austria (the most underrated travel destination worldwide!), nice to meet you.
After finishing my Bachelor degree in Geodesy in Vienna, I only recently moved to Graz to study Space Science and Earth from Space, hoping to become an astronaut one day... not! My plan is to study abroad for at least one semester within the next 2 years, either in Sweden, Seoul or Japan.
I've started going on solo backpacking adventures when I was 18 years old (South East Asia, 4 months), and eversince I've tried to see as many places as possible.
For traveling, I usually prefer going for outdoor adventures and nature, but especially on shorter trips I often stay in towns and cities only. I love great architecture and, most importantly, eating local food (I hope if I ever stay with you, you can tell me - or preferably, show me - where to find the good stuff :P).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to experience a country than to do it with the advice of a local! Also, please teach me a cheesy pick up line in your language... great to break the ice

CS IS NO DATING PAGE, PLEASE DON'T CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ANYTHING LIKE THAT!

Interests

I used to play the flute and the piano, taught myself some basic guitar and ukulele chords, and I love to sing!
Also, I really enjoy photography, especially when traveling. I'm far from being a professional, but it's good enough to impress my parents. Instagram: @julie_julsen - no influencer, yet ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

Stefan Zweig is my favourite author (and Austrian btw).
When it comes to music, I like punk rock, classic and anything you can sing along to. For going out I prefer DnB and Hip Hop.
Name me a Netflix show, I've seen it.
