Ahoi everybody!

I'm Yvonne, a 21 year old stranger from Austria, moving to Amsterdam to start over a new bachelor programme called PPLE (psychology, politics, economics and law) upcoming September. I chose this interdisciplinary bachelor, because - in contrast to many other programmes - it is less concerned about sustaining old structures, but rather emphasises on questioning those values and taking a stab to improve them!

I would consider myself as an open-minded, curious, critical-thinking, spontaneous, capricious, clean and vivid person, who is always looking for new ADVENTURES in any kind of way!

I am honest and straightforward and love enriching conversations and passionate discussions, since I´m constantly trying to improve and challenge myself - Like Saint-Exupéry once said: "The little prince never let go of a question, once he had asked it."

As being a free spirit, on the road is the "place" where I feel most comfortable - home is where my backpack is!
Five of the many (!) things I want to do before I die is to at least travel through one country by bike, one by motorcycle and one by horse, dive with whales and live on a boat.

I love nature and outdoor activities as well as focusing on my sensory perception - whether a starry sky, aquarelle colored clouds, shadow plays in small avenues, the smell of cinnamon, hearing my best friend's laugher, dancing through summer storms or walking barefoot through mud - these are the things which make me genuinely happy!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Because I hope to have the chance to get to know vibrant, creative, passionate and dedicated people who push and inspire each other – burning for what they are interested in, doing their utmost to challenge themselves, sharing and exchaning their perceptions, thoughts and ideas
Because…
… “the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars” (Jack Kerouac)

I do not believe in one truth, one way, nor one ultimate right answer, but rather in different approaches to pursue what many strive for: making a positive impact on the world.
