About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See and learn as much as possible

ABOUT ME

I'm a very open-minded, open-hearted, talkative person, who is realising every day how big the world is and how little I've seen from it until now! I love to learn about other perspectives and ways of living, trying to see the world from another person's eyes. I'm always eager to learn new stuff, meet new people and make new experiences every day.
I currently finished my bachelor studies in Vienna (Cultural and Social Anthropology) and I'm curious what comes next in my life.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to see things from their best side. Even a bad situation can get better with a smile on your face, so I try to make the best out of it. I strongly believe that everyone can make a difference, and I always try to treat every person I meet in the way I want to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to share my living space, but unfortunately I'm lacking the room for it (I have a tiny couch, but trust me, you don't want to sleep on that thing). But I would be happy to change that whenever the possibility occurs.

While traveling I hope to get a little bit of an insider perspective, learn how life works for locals and just spend some nice times together!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new at couchsurfing, but was able to meet some people at a friend's place, enjoying evenings together. Now I'm looking forward to get some experiences myself!

Music, Movies, and Books

That one is a little hard for me, because even if I could give you a detailed description of a book I've read three years ago, I most certainly wouldn't remember the name. Same goes for music and movies.

Although, a book I really enjoyed during a trip in Norway was The Long Earth from Terry Pretchett. No idea why this name lasted :D I'm a little bit obsessed with the TV-Show New Girl, but I'm also into stuff like Rick and Morty or Archer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stood on the Kjeragbolten in Norway! I'm afraid of heights, so this experience was not only amazing because of the landscape and the hike to it, but also because I could overcome my fear a little bit :)

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH

how to perfectly open a bottle of sparkling wine
fun facts about everything (even if I recently learned that one of my best about goats is not true)
how to stuff your socks
German and English

LEARN

more useful skills
how to sing properly
every bit of a language I can find

SHARE

conversations and discussions about everything
a laugh that sounds like someone's choking
hopefully funny days and a great time

I'm happy to share everything I can offer, especially good conversations, other perspectives of the world and how we can live in it.
