ABOUT ME I'm currently an Au Pair in Newton/Boston and I try to make the best out of this year. I came here from Austria, where I used to work as a bookseller, to take a break from my life and explore what else there is to see. I really just wanna meet new people, get a feeling for this country (and for myself too, I admit) and figure out what I really wanna do with my life. I'm a relaxed person, I don't judge people and I happy to learn about different views and ideas people have. PHILOSOPHY You tried so hard to be someone, that you forgot who you are...
Interested in Beer
Fluent in German
Learning English
Pioneer Badge
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I just joined CS, so I'm basically still trying to figure out how it all works, BUT I love the idea and I'm pretty happy I joined finally. At this point I'd love to surf on a few couches until I get back home, where I can offer my own couch for others. Until I get back I'd love to meet for a coffee and a conversation if anyone needs help in the Boston area. As I'm also very flexible with a one year old (who I can take along everywhere) I'd also be glad to offer help when somebody needs tips for traveling. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE None until now, I've only heard (good) stuff from a couple of friends of mine.

I can juggle :) And I can open a beer bottle with a ring!
My Interests
Books, of course. :) Apart from that I really enjoy music, although I'm unnaturally untalented in making it myself.
