About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Saving the world! ^^ And having fun doing so ;)

ABOUT ME

I'm a very open-minded, easy-to-go-with person, who loves meeting people, music, TV and travelling. I grew up in a small city in Austria and lived in Graz for 4 years. Then I was working as an Au Pair in Wassenaar in the Netherlands for a year. Now I'm living in Vienna and studying Russian and Slavic Studies here. I'm very friendly and people tell me I'm fun to hang out with ;) I also try to not take life all too seriously.
I'm very loyal and I have a friend who once told me, I'm the least judging person she ever met. I think that was the greatest compliment ever given to me. I'm very good at taking people the way they are and not trying to change them. That does not mean I get along with everybody, but I generally like people and can also accept and appreciate different ways of thinking and different lifestyles. I always try to learn from other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all ove the world :)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Atm I'm living and studying in St. Petersburg, Russia, and I'm living with a hostess, so I can't host anybody. But I would be very happy to meet and hang out :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I already met some great people and I think it's the perfect way to travel and actually get to know a country and to make new friends :)

Interests

I love music (although I'm not actively playing any instruments) and spend a LOT of time on music festivals and concerts. I also like movies and TV shows, reading, eating (and yes, I also like to cook ;) I'm a vegetarian, trying-to-be-vegan and I love to make my own food.), travelling and playing video- or board-games with friends.
Oh, and also I started practicing Yoga a few years ago and now really starting to get into Acro-Yoga. And I also love bouldering.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like very different kinds of music-styles. I'm basically listening to everythings that's not bad folk music or Jazz. Right now I'm mainly listeing to a lot of rock, hip-hop and electronic music (e.g. Refused, Tool, Karnivool, System of a Down, KIZ, Slipknot, Left Boy, Casper, Kraftklub, Skrillex, Justice, Camo&Krooked, Foo Fighters, Muse, Florence and the Machine, Magnetic Man, And so I watch you from Afar), but it's really hard for me to say which music styles I like, because I just like music. In general. :D
I also like a lot of movies, but I think my favourite movies of all time are Trainspotting and the Lion King. I'm into TV shows big time, there are way more I'm watching than I like to admit :)
For books it's also very hard to say what my favorites are, but if I have to anwer spontaniously I would say it's Kite Runner, Trainspotting and Schlafes Bruder. I also like the Millenium-Trilogy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to the Taj Mahal. It was INCREDIBLE!!!!

Teach, Learn, Share
