CURRENT MISSION

To settle back into life in the US.

ABOUT ME

My name is Rae. I just want to see the world and share experiences with new people.

I studied German in Vienna, Austria at IKI. In July 2009 I began my internship in Rome for a year. I worked for a university handling student affairs while I also did art history research.

I am now living in Seattle, Washington and settling back into life in America.

PHILOSOPHY

Share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to participate by sleeping on your couch or having you sleep on mine.
I am more interested in making lasting relationships with the people I meet through CS. I don't like to have you sleep on my couch and never hear from you again. So, let's be friends instead of mooches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted people in Seattle, Vienna and Rome. I have surfed in London, Amsterdam, Munich, Vienna and Athens. I have been to the monthly Stammtisch and a few other CS events in Vienna and Rome.
