CURRENT MISSION
Never stop exploring
ABOUT ME
I'm an outgoing person who loves to discover new places, drop into the unknown and go with the flow. Currently on a sabbatical from medschool, I'm mostly laidback but always looking for some good aventures.
I got the opportunity to go to a United World College for my two last years of high school. Focused on international understanding and conflict resolution, this international school gave me the chance to meet people from 100 different countries and to live with them for 2 years. I feel that this experience really made a mark on my personality and thus this is why I am always willing to meet people from anywhere.
PHILOSOPHY
Everything is meant to happen. No encounter is trivial.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I can´t wait to do the same when my couch will be free!

Teach, Learn, Share
Medicine, health and the body, environment. Expert skier, I have my avalanches courses if ever you want to know how not to die buried in snow!
