About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying life

ABOUT ME

What is most important about me is that I love travelling, experiencing the life in other countries and learning new languages. I kind of have a passion for other cultures. :) Since I left school I lived in three different countries (apart form Austria) and I hope there are many more to come.
I studied history in Vienna and am now working in an office (kinda booooring but well.. it pays the rent... ).
What else you should know about me: as everyone else I like to hang out with friends, maybe go out, do some danicng or just have a nice chat with them. I'm ridiculously fond of tea - especially all sorts of black tea . I really appreciate a good cup of Earl Grey combined with a good conversation or book.
I'd see myself as an easy-going and open-minded person who always tries to make the most out of the day and not to take things too seriously.

PHILOSOPHY

live and let live!! never regret!! always try to look on the bright side of life!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think Couch Surfing is a great way to get to know other cultures and to experience the way people live in other countries. I hope to be able to host soon and I'll try my best to be as kind and helpful as were the people I stayed with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well now that I've had my first experiences I can only say that I am amazed. It was great and I will definitely do it again!! It is a great way of travelling and you get to see places you'd never see without the help of the hosts.

Interests

I like all sorts of music (classical, rock, pop,...). And I love to go to the theatre, dancing and recently I discovered that I'm actually quite fond of sport :) But I'd say my greatest passion is learning new languages. This is one of the reasons why I lived in France, England and Spain. I just love the challenge of getting confronted with other languages and adapting myself to new places and new cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

I maybe can teach you some interesting facts about history... or help you improve your German/English/Spanish/French
There are so many things I'd like to learn but generally I'm grateful for everything you can teach me :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

oh well that's the question I keep asking myself... but hopefully at least one good conversation :)
