About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn italian, everything about italian cuisine and TO DANCE!

ABOUT ME
I am coming from the countryside of Austria, lived for 7 years in Vienna, halb a year in Kyoto and currently I am teaching german in a small city near Rome and Napoli.

In Vienna I studied Art and History and worked on, what hopefully will become, my own ceramic label.

In my freetime I like to do some photography or art/graphic design work, painting, reading, ceramic, playing volleyball, doing Yoga, but most importantly DANCING. I am open minded, love swimming in the sea, traveling around and good food :)

PHILOSOPHY

Learn and enjoy as much as possible, but always keep other people on your mind!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met other people via this platform and enjoyed a great time in different parts of the world!

Interests

I love reading and swimming, painting and trying new things. I can enjoy a good night out in a bar, a club or a festival weekend as equaly as a night home talking to friends, cooking or watching a movie together.

My major interest is now in ceramics, I would like to learn as much as possible about it and maybe establish my own label one day.

As for MUSIC I enjoy (mostly) everything!
Actually my philosophy is as long as it fits my mood, I can melancholically stare out the window or dance my ass off to it I really don´t care... Also I forget names of artists or genres I like so easily...

To list something: didge&bass, drum&bass, techno, trap, reggae, accoustic, classic, 80s music, goa

One of my favourite bands/artists (or more the ones I can remember the name): David Bowie, Queen, Granada, Wanda, Bilderbuch, The Prodigy, K. Flay, Portugal. The Man, alt-J, Mo, Grouplove, AC/DC, Matt and Kim, Franz Ferdinand, Matsumoto Zoku...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Kyoto in a house with 15 other people, making some great friends during the time!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about the basics in ceramic and also if you would like to learn german or about austrian or greek kitchen (I make great Moussaka!)

I am quite interested in red wine and Gin, so if you want to share a good glass while talking about important and not so important things, I am up for it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Language exchange, I am a good cook (in some fields), I can tell you about Austria and if our chemistry is good I would like to host you or show you around in Vienna!

Austria, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, United Kingdom
