Wien, Østerrike

Situated close to the Danube river, the apartment enjoys proximity to (well-known) parks, the water and multiple options of public transport. The city center is within close reach, while the area around the apartment is residential and somewhat calm. I live here alone, with a spacious living room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.

What's great about my apartment is that its location is both central and far away from the busy parts of town. The main local train line is a 5 minutes walk away. The tram just outside the house brings you directly to the city center, taking only 12-15 minutes. Within 10 minutes walking distance, there is also the subway line 6 that connects you to other parts of town.

When I was young, me and my family traveled a lot with Intervac. It is a great way to explore the world and the concept of letting someone into your home, based on mutual respect and interest, is an idea that has stayed with me ever since. I am also active in the couch-surfing community and I regularly welcome travelers into my home.

The apartment is about 45 sqm and quite easy to navigate: There are two couches that can turn into beds. The flat has an entryway, which leads into the kitchen and further into either the bedroom, the bathroom or the living room. The neighbors are nice and helpful. I like its atmosphere a lot. Accessibility-wise, there is a change in levels of about 4 cm once. Besides that, the whole flat is level and equipped with 80+ cm doors.
