Hi Guys!

I am just new to the couch surfing community and look forward to meet new people as guest and host. Since my early 20´s I almost fully focused on my job and university. After this years I lately changed some of my life priorities and want to get to know the world.

Although I am from Austria I am not really a fan of wintersports (stereotype busted). Besides that I am into every kind of sports or outdoor activities. If you have a cool hobby to share - let me know!
My most uncommon hobby is probably "gold mining" where I shuffle dirt out of rivers and process it with pans and sieves until only gold flitters are left.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined the community to see parts of this world I´ve never been to so far. Even more important I am highly interested different cultures, foods, habits and traditions around our planet. In my imagination, there is no better way to explore a country/region than meeting locals and being part of their life for period of time. This is what I consider as "real" travelling.

In return I want to open up my life, my culture and my experiences for people who are interested in!

Movies: I will chose "Shutter Island" as one of my most favorite movies. Not a big fan of science fiction, anime, and unrealistic super heros.

Series: I really enjoyed both of the Narcos series on Netflix and fully watched them in spanish original.

Books: I have to admit that I haven´t read a book for the last 15 years

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2019 I went swimming with some local penguins at Simons Bay (South Africa). I will never forget their wiggle walk on the beach and their graceful moves.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A comfortable couch, warm shelter, shower and some sightseeing in Upper Austria. Further I am up to almost every topic about life. I actually enjoy listening more than telling stories. Guess there isn´t a topic which I would not like to talk about!

Countries I’ve Visited

Croatia, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Northern Ireland, South Africa, Spain, Ukraine
