About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn about the history of the world and the stories it has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly person. Very open I would say. I love listening to people's tales of their home country and life experiences. I'm eager to meet new people. I have a relaxed attitude and am forever learning. Some people would also say I am smiley :)

PHILOSOPHY

Approach every negative emotion or conflict with an open mind and try to grow positively from it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go to language meetings and also meet up with visitors to Vienna to show them some lesser-known places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met couchsurfers in Montreal, Leeds and Vienna. It is always fun. I have met characters from all over the world.

Interests

Live music. Stand-up comedy. Watching films. Dancing. Running. Learning languages (German at the moment :) ). Being warm. I like doing pretty much anything if it is in the sun. The sun makes me happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Alphadog, Changeling, Monster, Perfume. I made a resolution recently to read more books so I'm slowly increasing my collection.

Music-wise I like electronic music which is great to dance to e.g. Stromae, but I also like heavier electronic music when I am running e.g. Swedish House Mafia.
I'm very grateful for Shazam, I learn a lot of new artists that way. I discovered Agnes Obel from the radio and also Alt-J (even though they studied at the same university as me :D )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flying over the mountains from Montreal to San Francisco, not so spectacular but it looked just like a satellite image :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a fluent English speaker. I also work in molecular biology/biochemistry. I have been told that my fun is contagious. And if I have sweets in my bag I will offer you one :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share with my creative mind and my adventurousness. I can also cook somethings and if you want, we can go running together. I've been running for a few years now and I really like it.

Countries I’ve Visited

Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Grenada, Mexico, Netherlands, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Slovakia, Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Austria, Canada, United Kingdom
