Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I occasionally look for hosts when travelling to have a better, more personal and insightful experience abroad. On CS, I only hosted during my time in Malawi - very sympathetic and also some crazy people; additionally, I had many positive Couchsurfing-ish experiences through Hospitality Club, many magnificent days & moments when travelling through European countries.
In our current flat in Vienna, we share only one room and unfortunately don't have space to host anybody...

Interests

Being with the people I love is what makes my life worthwile. I enjoy listening to music, going to concerts, singing with other people and playing guitar or piano just on my own. Theater and dance performances also see me as a visitor.
Used to go climbing, now I play basketball (though on a beginner level). For relaxation I like cycling, walking the hills and vineyards around Vienna or, even better, hiking. If I am not doing these things then I'm probably reading books, newspapers, comics, or watching movies.
