CURRENTLY UNABLE TO HOST UNTIL MID MAY

My name is Mimi and I live in Vienna, Austria.

I love traveling and feel drawn to foreign countries and different cultures. I enjoy learning about as well as exploring new places and I am genuinely a very open person and easy to talk to. (It’s all about mutual respect and equality for me!)

When I was 17 I’ve spent 6 months in San Francisco, California before I went back to finish High School which I did.
Now whenever I’m not hopping on a plane I am working as a tattoo artist in my hometown Vienna and do some social media work online as well to finance my travels!

Besides I’m a devoted writer and reader and I enjoy good food, spending time in old cafés or cool bars and being by the seaside.

PLEASE NOTE: There is absolutely no place for sexism, homophobia, racism or hate with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m always hoping to meet interesting and nice people on my trips and also in my hometown that I can talk to and connect with, maybe also go for a coffee or a drink together!

Traveling to me is not only about the places but also the people who inhabit those places and I’m very open to learning and listening as well sharing some of my own experiences and ideally make some friends along the way.

Interests

I’m really into art and working with different mediums.
I crochet and sew and since I’m a tattoo artist I draw a lot wether it’s with paint or pencils or on paper or canvas. Besides I also enjoy writing, reading and the little things in life!

Also a big fan of festivals, dancing, theater and film and design and always down for a Chai Latte or a Mojito someplace nice!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve dreamt of traveling and seeing the world ever since I was a child and I‘ve worked hard to make that dream come true and that is something I am incredibly proud of!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn and practice my Spanish and I’m always open to trying out new things like Yoga or cooking crazy recipes!

I can teach German, crocheting and I am always down to recommend places, books and meals!
Also as mentioned before I DO NOT tolerate hate (homophobia, sexism, racism, ableism, etc.) but am always open to educate, feel free to ask!
