ABOUT ME

Errr... I'm an art student in Vienna, Austria (my hometown), I've been studying painting for almost four years now. I'm a nerd (I love comics, videogames and japanese music) and I'm very interested in politics.
I don't really know what else to write here. Vienna is an ambiguous city that can be dull and grey as well as vibrant and exciting. I can't host anyone at the time (my one-room appartment is tiny), but if you need advice as to where to go in Vienna, I'd be glad to help out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I can't host anyone, sorry. But I can give you advice on Vienna, the art university here, the off-space art scene in general, and maybe a few places that are not that well known... I have lived in this city my entire life, so maybe I can show you places that aren't so well known yet?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first week in this community and although I've heard a lot about it, I have never participated. I have, however, traveled around a bit and lots of times I stayed with friends or friends of friends. It was always a wonderful experience to get to know a place through someone who lives there and knows it well!

Interests

I like traveling (duh), cooking, reading (comic books and literature), making great plans for the future and abolishing them the next day, discussing questions of principle, cleaning up and making a mess of everything again, playing video games, listening to post-rock, writing essays, dressing up, watching movies,... I like a lot of things.
