Hey everybody! :)

My name is Elisabeth and I'm a 20-something from beautiful Austria. I've just graduated from University where I was studying Media Management. I havent't found out what exactly to do with my life but I believe in "Everything happens for a reason".

I have always loved travelling and that's why I tend to spend most of my money on travelling. Whenever somebody asks me what I want for my birthday etc. I would ask for money for travelling. I especially love living in place for a few months. After finishing school, I worked as an au-pair in Kent, United Kingdom. During my studies I got the chance to do Erasmus twice: in Belgium and in Denmark. Basically I'm always looking for a chance to escape my life in Austria ;)

The more I travel, the longer my bucket list gets. Does that sound familiar?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that Couchsurfing is a great opportunity for meeting new people from all over the world and learning about their culture. Hostels and hotels are fine but I think by living with a local, you will get much more out of your trip.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am obsessed with the music of Coldplay, Florence and the Machine, Mumford and Sons and Ed Sheeran and much more. I am generally obsessed with music and wouldn't leave the house without my iPod. I would desribe myself as a music person.
I like the cheesy movies and books by Cecilia Ahern and Nicholas Sparks ;)
And I like most of the movies with Leonardo DiCaprio.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee Jumping on a festival in Belgium even though I said I would never do Bungee Jumping.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am happy to teach German and/or English :)
