About Me

Griaß enk' world explorers! I'm Max, 27y/o passionate traveller who grew up in a small town in the province of Salzburg called Flachau, located in the heart of the austrian alps. Master's in Sustainable Development in Venice & Hiroshima, postgrad diploma in IR and Diplomacy from Vienna and back there again. Currently working as advisor for water policy and circular economy before leaving to new places and collecting new experiences on my days off. If you're passing by Vienna, don't hesitate to hit me up - I'm glad to help you out with a place to stay and offer you the opportunity to see your destination from a different angle.

Couchsurfing is free and I don't expect anything in return (maybe some snus if you're swedish), so just be nice and don't destroy my appartment and we'll have a great time together :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would never mind to pay for a stay at someone's house or a bed in a hostel, but being able to get a local's view and immediately a cultural impression about a foreign destination is the reason why couchsurfing is one of the best things ever created

Interests

I love reading, writing, talking and listening.
I love phenomenology, small sensations, sounds and scents,
I love cord pants, cheese, and wikipedia.
Above all, I love people. And all their stories they have to tell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Signed up on Couchsurfing

Running a marathon on the Faroe Islands. I mean, why not? ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd consider myself as someone incredibly enjoying "senseless leisure activities"
I'm curious which random things you waste your time on :)
