Hi!
I am Sofia, 23 years old, from Bregenz (Austria) but I live and study in Vienna.
I am an open-minded, friendly and warm person who likes to laugh and go out a lot. I love speaking foreign languages, which is why I study English and Spanish. My French is OK and I speak very little Italian, too. In my free time, I like meeting friends, I talk a lot and I basically laugh about everything :).
I don't do a lot of sports, but I practiced vaulting (an equestrian sport) for 10 years, which is why I still like exercising from time to time (hiking, yoga).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently spent 6 months in the United States, where I did a student exchange in Columbia, South Carolina. During my stay, I travelled all over the South and the East Coast, visited a friend in Hawai'i, stopped in Los Angeles and San Francisco, and flew home from New York City. I found Couchsurfing to be the most convenient and fun possibility to meet locals, and I have come to appreciate this platform a lot. I couchsurfed in Ft Myers, FL, Clearwater, FL, Nashville, TN, Chicago, IL, and New York City, NY. All of the people I met there were extremely helpful and friendly, and I loved staying with them.
