About Me

CURRENT MISSION

get to know the world better

ABOUT ME

In December 2009 I graduated at the university of economics in Vienna. I have always dreamed about travelling for a longer period of time, and what time is better than now? For me, travelling is not only getting to know a new country, but also a new culture and new interresting people. I consider myself as beeing an open person, very comunicative and adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

It is always worth to fight for your dreams! I have had goals in my life people use to think I would never get there. It wasn't easy, but I have learned if there is something you really want to reach you can discover an enormous amount of energy and power in you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am pretty new in the community. I was couchsurfing in Colombia and to a couchsurfing meeting in sao paulo. I just made the best experiences, so I offered my couch back home several times. Every time a had CS it was a great fun and an interesting experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have offered my couch to many people I met traveling before I was a part of CS. Now I already have hosted several Couchsurfers on my couch. So my couch is used to have different people sleeping on it. :-)

Interests

Of course, I love to travel. In my leisure time I like meeting friends, going out, doing sports (snow boarding, moutainbiking, running, windsurfing...). But I also enjoy doing quiet things like reading, going to the theater and as far as it works out: cooking. You often meet me with my camera, I enjoy taking pictures.

Music, Movies, and Books

The movies I can watch over and over are Quentin Tarinto movies. In my opinion, he is the best director!
Generally I enjoy those movies with unexpected endings...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Chichen Itza pyramides in Mexico as well as the Fraser Isalnd in Australia left a sustainable impression on me. I have been parachuting at the age of 16 - that was amazing. And I have been hiking on austrian mauntains what makes me always aware of the beautiful country I am living in.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can teach is of course my mother tongue, german. Since I have studied Information Systems I consider myself as having good computer skills, so any problems with your computer, i can help!
What I would like to learn is playing the guitar, the only song I can play on it is "knoking on heavens door" and more or less "don't look back in anger" from the oasis :-)

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain
