My name is Pia, I am currently studying musicology in Graz and I also work to save some money for my travelling plans. I'm 22 years old and originally come from a mountain village so I have a passion for skiing (especially backcountry or skitouring) and I love winter. Even though winter in Graz is not the same as in the mountains, it's kust a beautiful season. But actually I love every season, because there is so much to do all the time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a really good opportunity to meet new people and get to know the culture of a city or country in a much more authentic way than by staying in hotels or apartments

Interests

My main interests are sports like climbing, skiing, slacklining, surfing (tho I'm at the very beginning of learning how to surf), as well as music which I currently study, and philosophy, sociology, economy, politics....
