Description

Dear hosts and travellers,
I'm glad you came across my profile.
My name is Lisa and grew up in a small town in the west of austria and because of my studies I moved to Vienna. I am 24 years old and since I'm a child myself I wanted to be a teacher and therefore I studied primary school teaching with a specialization on inclusion and disabled kids. Currently I'm working as a teacher in a school for kids with special needs and doing my masters in this field.
Ever since I'm little I'm a curious person, who loves to explore new and unknown things. Both of my parents travel a lot and it seems natural they also transferred this passion to their kids.
In 2018 I've graduated from highschool and went on a 8 month adventure with my backpack. My journey took me to many beautiful places and I could see and learn incredible things. With 24 years I was able to travel to more 30 countries and I'm very thankful for that.

Beside that urge to see the world I enjoy cooking a lot. I love to learn cooking habits from locals and explore new tastes and food combinations. I think it's very interesting to see how different countries and cultures use ingredients and cook something super delicious.

I would describe myself as a open minded and positive person. I care for my fellows and try my best to make everyone feel comfortable. In general I'd say I'm a social and outgoing person, but I guess everyone has their non-social days. I'm a curious person and one thing I really appreciate about traveling is getting to know the habits of cultures and see new and different ways of living.

Even tho I'm "stuck" to vienna for some more years, because of my studies, I try to use holiday or days of to travel around and go out of my daily routine.

More details about your skills

I really enjoy working with people and especially with children, that's why I am studied teaching. I'm not a shy person and I have no problem with talking to strangers. Friends of mine also telling me that I'm a good chef and I really enjoy cooking. I'm organized and like to plan things, but I'm also up to a lot of fun. As I already worked in many restaurants, hotels and cafes I know how to handle stressfull situations and how to talk to guests. I've also a lot of experience in working with children and I'm babysitting for over 10 years now.
