About Me

I'm happiest when outdoors, I speak fast and love hoppy IPAs. I love hiking, snowboarding and any kind of outdoor activity. Big on exploring and just wandering around. I'd rather chat with locals than see the tourist attractions. I am currently working in Salzburg for a global NGO that focuses on sustainable development and digital innovation. It's a pretty good mix, I'm happy to share more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hosted several people on BeWelcome, but that site is not everywhere yet, so I'm trying couchsurfing as well. I am not so much into the hostel - let's get crazy drunk culture and prefer meeting locals, getting inside tips, learning about the place. I see it as a more sustainable and honest way to experience a new destination.

Interests

traveling, studying abroad, working with youth, sustainability, feminism, music, extreme sports (I am a really bad, but truly excited surfer), hanging out with friends, photography, videography, speaking Spanish, learning Portuguese, cooking

Music, Movies, and Books

I like mainly any type of music that has lyrics, currently, I enjoy Grandson, Billie Eilish and Annenmaykantereit for learning German. For several years now, I really wanted to go Guca festival in Serbia. I hope it will work out in 2025.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just finished working at a grocery shopping startup, where we got to eat tons of amazing and food and drink quality beers/wines/spirits as part of the job.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you outdoor survival basics and some fire prevention ( I am a voluntary fire fighter). I'd love to learn at least basic conversation of every country I go to. I enjoy talking about politics, I studied political economy of international development. I'm also happy to share travel tips to places I've been, or insider tips for Prague that has been my hometown for a few years.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Interesting conversations, I'm happy to cook, tips for funding for projects and activities.
