About me
I am a 23 year old- Philosophy and Sociology student at the University of Vienna. I came to Vienna when I was 1 year old. So I can say that I lived here for all my live really.
A habit of mine is to observe people, reflect upon what I see and make my own little theories about it (what should go nicely with my studies).
A passion of mine is music. I can not live without it. I need to hear it, to feel it, to breathe it. It’s my oxygen and my medication.
Besides I love to travel, to meet new people, to learn about new and different things therefore I like to read and watch documentaries. I love to laugh and do crazy but no illegal things 
If I had to describe myself in three words, I wouldn’t. I’ll say that you’d have to see for yourself and generate your own opinion. And if you were wrong I would correct you, of course
Why Vienna?
There are sooo many reasons. Speaking (or rather writing) as a local and a traveler I can tell that Vienna is one of the cleanest cities in the world (and you learn to appreciate it when you lived somewhere else for some time). There are a lot of green spaces in this city, where you can lay around and relax.
Vienna has a long history carved into its numerous historical buildings and monuments and there are really some diamonds of architecture to be found here. I will not tell which ones they are, because everybody shall spot his own jewel here:). In my humble opinion, those relatively small buildings are always more charming than those huge, glassy skyscrapers.
Besides, culture is a really important thing in Vienna. Not just the cliché of classic music and opera, but there is a lot going on other than that. Concerts in different genres almost every day, small and big exhibitions of known as well as unknown artist or dance performances of distinct styles may make you stand around helplessly not knowing where to go and what to see next
