Hey everybody,
I ˋm Helene (or Leni, 31y) from Germany and a new member of the couchsurfing community (January 2018).
Since four years Iˋm living in Austria, Vienna.
Moved here to work and now want to travel for half a year from beautiful Iran to majestic Russia, by crossing mystic Armenia and wilderness of Georgia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I chose consciously couchsurfing to talk, listen, discuss with people of different cultures their different views of life. Learn something about the others always means to learn something about yourself. Share moments of laughter and also deep thinking...just being human ;)
And being honest: it’s also a cheap way of traveling!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As I ˋm a new member I don’t have any experiences in couchsurfing, but share experiences in AirB´n ´B as a solo female traveler. And I loved it! Traveling is not just only running from tourist hotspots to other sightseeing places.
Traveling is to get in contact with people, their culture, learn and try new things, being interested in different lifestyles, discuss and listen, respect and get an understanding of unique lifes. Open yourself and experience that everybody of us is just an human being and has desires and wishes. Hence every moment of respectful exchange is a precious moment!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I only can share my personality, laughters, happy moments, experiences as an environmental engineer and two healthy ears to listen :) and chocolate...I ´m addicted to that!
