I enjoy my life to the fullest and consider myself lucky to have had many different experiences in my early life stages.

On the one hand I’m a modest, warm-hearted woman, who grew up on a little animal farm in the Austrian alps.

On the other hand I have always been very ambitious in achieving my goals. I was working 10years as a sports journalist for our national tv broadcaster, but realized that working with people does give me more . I studied Psychotherapy, worked in the hospital and for four years I’m working with my patients in my own practice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Elbert Hubbard once said - "the love we give away is only the love we keep". Seeing others people laugh can make you feel happy.

I used to host many people back when I was living in Vienna. It was an incredible experience to share my culture, it felt like traveling without leaving home.
On the other hand I have made unforgettable experiences with CS abroad. Often I’m traveling alone. CS gives me the freedom to get in touch with locals and feel connected to a bigger society.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling solo from Vienna to Beijing without a plane. 11.000km only by buses and trains.

Spending one night in the desert in Jordan, sitting next to a bonfire, watching, exploring the sparkling stars and being amazed by the beauty of the origin life.

Dancing Viennese waltz at midnight in the rain on the roofs of Paris - surrounded by the Eiffel Tower in its nightly glow.

Hiking during the night on a mountain in my hometown with one of my best friends to see one of the most beautiful and most meaningful sunrises in my life ☀️
