ABOUT ME
Hey! I'm a Ph.D. student studying astrophysics in Wuppertal Germany. I just arrived from Adelaide, Australia.
English is my first language, I'm intermediate in German, and a beginner in Spanish and Portuguese.
I love reading, movies, music, bike rides and meeting people. I'm outgoing, friendly and like having a good time, be that out with good friends or walking through the wilderness, enjoying nature.
Please feel free to add me and contact me through couchsurfing or facebook.
Cheers!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Staying on Koh Rong island in Cambodia, living in a village without electricity or running water for two weeks. I was volunteering there for Marine Conservation and living in a different culture far away from western civilization in a pristine environment was a humbling and enlightening experience that I will never forget.
Highway of Death in Bolivia
Inca Trail in Peru
Swam near the Buracao waterfall in Bahia, Brazil.
