About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life in every breath

ABOUT ME

Honest, open-minded, helpful, sportive, down-to-earth, humourus, curious, optimistic, tending to smile a lot and loving life.
I am not perfect and don't expect perfection of anyone.

I adore family & friends, having fits of laughter, travelling and learning everyday some wordly wisdoms.

In general gratefulness plays an important role for me and naturally I return every favour but expect the same from the other side.

PHILOSOPHY

If you meet a person without a smile - give him yours
Variety is the Spice of Life

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

2012-2014 I traveled for all together 12 months, surfed with great people and got to know a few through cs-events and meetings.
2014 /2015 I hosted some friends and couchsurfers from abroad but since I will study in Vienna now I will put a little bit more focus on couchsurfing to get some great experience with Internationals!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

2012-2014 - Couchsurfing New Zealand, USA, South Africa, Dubai, Malaysia, Singapore, Tokyo, Iceland
Simply an incredible good way to get to know amazing people & cultures from all over the world and to open your mind.
Thanks for every acceptance of my requests.

Interests

I am a musician in my heart and really love to play the piano or saxophone. In general I hear all kinds of music from Pop/Rock/Metal to Electro/Techno but also Classical etc.
On the one hand i like to work out to the music, but on the other hand i like relaxing to slow beautiful sounds.. at home, at concerts or making the music by myself :)
Of course I am into sport! Bouldering & Climbing, Soccer (in general teamsport), skiing, running, hiking and also swimming/diving. Extreme sports as skydiving and rafting are also favourites of mine
