After my studies of Geography in Salzburg and Ottawa I moved to Innsbruck due to a job offer. Here we are living since 2000, meanwhile having two adult children. I am the head of a youth center, counselling young people, approved Austrian Guide, expert in fruit tree pruning, volunteer (mainly fund-raising and networking) for our Maasai school in Tanzania (www.eramatare.org)...

I spend a lot of time in nature: hiking, mountaineering, backcountry-skiing, sledging, mountainbiking, swimming in lakes... collecting herbs, berries and mushrooms. I love travelling, meeting new people and getting known to different cultures. I like to listen to others as I'm very interested in others lifes.

I like good coffee, food and wine - perhaps that's why I also like cooking ;-)
I enjoy arts and music, creativity where ever it shows up! I like storytelling and fairytales... I'm interested in life!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I like Couchsurfing as a people-connecting-project. It's good to be hosted and to host people. Couchsurfing is perfect for getting known to a country off the beaten track, to understand more of it - Let's make the world a better place!
