22 year-old musician based in Vienna, striving to enjoy life :) ***Dear cs-members, if you decide to send me a request, please read through my profile completely and tell me why you want to stay and who you are. :) Be considerate of my decision that I‘m not accepting non-personal copy and paste messages. Nevertheless i am trying to answer every request. safe travels to everyone!! *** I am a music student at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, studying clarinet. I also play piano and bass guitar. ;) Music is probably the biggest part of my life and I love to learn new instruments. I study classical clarinet but i am interested in every kind of music. friends would probably describe me as an optimistic and positive person, energetic, thoughtful, organised and adventurous (that‘s why i‘m on CS ;) I enjoy spending time outdoors. I absolutely love cycling, I use my bicycle every day and on sunny weekends you can often find me somewhere outside of Vienna riding my roadbike. I went from Germany to Ireland by bike (and two ferries to be honest), greater procects incoming... I also like hiking, my goal is to walk from one end of Austria to the other trough the alps. aaand I really like dancing :) i have done ballroom dance for some years and am learning Salsa/Bachata at the moment mostly vegetarian for ecological reasons I always have random instruments in my bag „Great things never came from comfort zones“

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
From December 23 to March 24 I lived in Ghana, where I experienced some of the craziest and happiest months of my life. I worked for an NGO called „Musiker ohne Grenzen“ (eng. Musicians without Borders) and taught music to children from some schools in Accra and the neighbourhood where I stayed. Now I am back in Austria and everything seems so quiet, organised and colorless in comparison, that I am even more looking forward to hosting guests in my house, who will bring stories, dreams and the spirit of traveling.
Music, Movies, and Books
some books I can recommend: Veronika beschließt zu sterben (Veronika decides to die) - Pablo Coelho Siddharta - Hermann Hesse We are the weather - saving the planet begins at breakfest - Jonathan Foer Alte weiße Männer - Sophie Passmann ... different genres for different situations... classical music and jazz are the kind of music i play on the clarinet, apart from that I love to listen to soul, funk, Reggae, Billy Joel, Parcels, Beatles, red hot chilli peppers, Jacob Collier, Vulfpeck, also some german stuff: von wegen Lisbeth, Bilderbuch, Bukahara, AnnenmayKantereit ;)
