About Me

I am an open minded person and I like to share and connect I like traveling as I enjoy it a lot to dive into new cultures, to meet people full of kindness and to get to know the foreign languages.
Having lived in Innsbruck (Austria) I moved to Berlin two years ago. Still I am in kind of in an arriving mode.

PHILOSOPHY

"Waking up in the ordinary"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience had been in August 2010 in ravensburg(Germany) when my two sisters and me made a pushbike tour to switzerland. Everytime we have been welcomed very warmly, had dinner together with our hosts or just exchanged our experiences. That was the point of time I realized that there exists a wonderful community, where I do want to participate.
Since then I have also hosted in Innsbruck and I try to give back some of the kindness I was receiving during the last years.
