Hey there, my name is Elisabeth Adlgasser, as you have already seen, but please feel free to call me Lilly. I am 21 years old and a student in the lovely Kufstein right now.
I would describe myself as a constantly smiling and open hearted personality. As an extrovert I love to surround myself with people and feel like wasting time spending day over day just sitting at home. The only exception is when I found a really great book - Then I am locked away from society for the days (or hours) it takes to finish that book.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I see Couchsurfing as a great opportunity to meet and befriend people.
I want colour in my life and definitely in my traveling. I want to interact not only with the people but also with the culture, dive into and really get to know the place I am visiting. You can't just possibly do that alone in a short span of time but Couchsurfing offers to give everything my inner traveler - and many others - wishes for.
I would also love to host but I am living in a shared flat with three other people and very limited space, hence hosting is pretty much impossible.

兴趣

My brother was the one who gave me my first real novel, Eragon, and ever since that I love the fantasy / sci-fi genre considering books. Of course I read classics and loved them too but those are the genres I find myself lost in the most.

My fascination with languages also came with an early stage, as I have relatives in Canada who only speak language. My father valued teaching me early on very much and ever since then I love listenting to and learning other languages. Unfortunately my French is a bit rusted. I can still understand most of it but my tongue and brain go numb as soon as I have to talk.

音乐、电影和书籍

I listen to most music genres. I don't like everything but I definitely have a collection of genres in my library. One I dig the most right now are the covers of Postmodern Jukebox. I have been to two of their concerts and would go again any time.

I like action and animation movies the most.

Best book in my opinion: The Name of the Wind (+ sequels) by Patrick Rothfuss

Learn - I am very enthusiastic about learning new languages. I started learning Russian as well as Japanese and I really want to polish my French. My next language project would probably be Spanish
