Hi there,

I'm Alex, and I'm excited to get to know great people from all around the world! I was lucky enough to live away from home for a long time - Atlanta, Berlin, Zurich, Boston and Ljubljana, Buenos Aires were home for some time. I met amazing people on the way, some of whom I count as my friends today.

Im a travel addict, and though I will never be able to see all the places I want to see, its at least worth a try discovering this world, no?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because hotels are boring and I always feel like a grandpa when I stay at hostels ;-)

Interests

Right now, my life consists of working a lot to get my medtech business off the ground - we are developing robotics for intensive care unit patients. We are making great progress, and I love my job. Best (job) decision Ive ever taken

• traveling
• business

Music, Movies, and Books

Im a Spotify addict - Sara Bareilles, Gavin DeGraw, The Fray all make my day. I love Salsa and Tango, and from time to time a little old school hip hop or country music - guess you cant live in Atlanta without getting hooked on the music ;-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ive backpacked from Munich to Istanbul, without a plan, a map or a clue - just put my thumb out and saw where it would take us. We had a plane ticket back home 16 days later, so we had 2 weeks to make it to Istanbul - amazing adventure.
