Hello :-)

My name is Sophie, I am 24 years old and come from Vienna, Austria! I hold a Bachelor degree in Comparative Literature from the Free University in Berlin and currently study in Vienna. I live together with my boyfriend, we have a spacious guest room, which we are happy to share ever I have time and opportunity to host someone! :-)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I consider it is a great idea to get to know other cities, countries, people and life styles! Travelling can be very expensive for young people - therefore Couchsurfing is a perfect opportunity to arrange trips affordably while at the same time gathering insider information about the place visited which cannot be found in travel guides! After some fantastic CS-experiences, I do not exaggerate if I ascribe some of the most interesting and life-shaping experiences to CS-contacts!

Centres d'intérêt

My interests include reading (otherwise I would not study Literature^^), cultural activitities (museums, theatre, ...), sewing, gardening and travelling! Moreover, I was a member of the Scouts movement for more then 12 years. I am an open minded person and curious to get to know new ways of life!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

My trip to Sweden in summer 2015 which was originally planned to be quite monotonous (working on a farm for two months) and turned into an adventure I could never have hoped for: travelling, couchsurfing, picking strawberries at a plantage, working at two different youth camps, exploring more than 15 cities, meeting loads of interesting people, having conversations about diverse topics, ...

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I will be happy to share my guest room with you, conversation, a cup of tea, book suggestions, a walk through Vienna, a city map, recommendations of my favourite sights or cafés,... If you are learning German, I can practise with you, and I am always curious to learn new expressions of your language too!
