Hi! I’m Lena, a 17-year-old traveler from Austria who’s currently exploring Southeast Asia on a budget, but soon I will fly to New Zealand. I love meeting new people, learning about local cultures, and experiencing places in the most authentic way possible.

I’m a very open-minded, easygoing and respectful guest. At home I live with my mom and little sister, and I’m used to sharing space, helping out and keeping things tidy. I also love photography, filming and editing, so I usually take a lot of pictures and enjoy capturing the beauty of the places I visit.

In my free time I play soccer for my local women’s team, enjoy skiing with my dad in winter, and I love getting outdoors — hiking, exploring nature, or discovering hidden spots. I also like drawing when I get the chance!

As a female solo traveler, safety and kindness mean a lot to me. I appreciate hosts who enjoy conversations, cultural exchange, or just sharing a simple meal. I’m very independent, happy to do my own thing, but also always up for hanging out, cooking together, or joining any local activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing to connect with people, learn from locals, and experience each country in a deeper, more meaningful way. I’m grateful for every host who opens their home and shares a bit of their world.
