Hi guys, I'm Julia - originally from Austria and soon moving to Canada. Before I worked and lived in Australia for 9 months, New Zealand for 6 months, in London over a year and in Switzerland for three years. Always looking for new ways to explore new contries and cities :)
Interested in Cycling
Interested in Hiking
Fluent in German

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
CS is such a great platform, glad a friend of mine introduced me to it year's ago. + Great to meet local people from the city you wanna visit. Travelling and discovering cities/areas with the help and insider tips of a "native" makes the journey 100 times better + If I am not able to go on holidays or travelling I can invite people to my house so I can get in touch with other people from different nationalities :) + CS organises small/big events in my area where I've already met really interesting people.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Moved to London without a job, flat and plan. Turned out as my best year. I found new really good friends and had an amazing job with great colleagues. Really fell in love with travelling and since then I am no longer scared of moving and living in other countries.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Good travel stories Bit of German/Austrian German or Swiss German or all at once ;)
My Interests
Pretty much everything outdoors! Bought some camping stuff to hopfully exploring Canada soon. Other than that I love music, dancing salsa, skiing, mtb, hiking, scuba diving, snorkelling and listening to life stories of different people from other nationalities.
