Hello!

I'm Alexander, currently on a career/travel break from Machine Learning and Data Engineering in Insurance whilst considering my next move. Looking to explore and learn about different cultures and experience life in a different way. Love to try new food and cuisines. I enjoy cooking and developing an understanding of different flavour profiles but would not consider myself an expert by any means.

I spent a lot of time on my family's farm growing up so happy doing lots of different things - would love to get closer to nature and develop a better understanding of living a sustainable lifestyle. Currently looking to travel to Scandinavia, Switzerland and embrace the cold before heading to Australia.

I have lived in multiple countries and volunteered in Central America helping to build a water pipeline as well as helping putting on education workshops about general hygiene. Currently trying to also revise some of the languages that I had learnt in particular Russian and Chinese. Open to learning others as well - had been recently looking at German and Norwegian.

Would be great to meet fun, relaxed and social people to explore and share cultures and experience different ways of living.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Would be great to meet like minded travellers and share travel experiences / learn from each other. I hope when I have settled somewhere to be able to host and give back as well. Also keen to explore and try new things.
