I’m a trained ecologist and work as a consultant in agriculture on biodiversity in a small office. I love being outside and to organize all kind of events, from a little music festival in the Swiss Alps or friend's gathering to Busking Festivals in various cities in Switzerland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to meet new people and learn all kind of new things!

Interests

Always down for a nerdy discussion on ecology, bioidversity loww, species interaction and how to save the world. ;) But I'm also a keen listener and can pretty much be interested and talk about all other sorts of topics.
Just gotten into indoor climbing a few months ago and planing on extending this new passion to outdoor climbing next summer. In winter pretty much on the slopes and in summer in the mountains every free minute.

• hiking
• snowboarding
• swimming

Music, Movies, and Books

Big book enthusiast, so you’ll be better off discussing books than movies with me ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking halfway across Scotland and Slovenia - there is hardly a better way to truly experience nature and the beauty of a country than on foot.

Spending two months in the South African bush training to be a safari guide and having incredible encounters with the power of the wild.

Dancing the night away on a small boat in the middle of the Indian Ocean, surrounded by small uninhabited islands and under one of the most beautiful night skies.

Teach, Learn, Share

Passionate about all kinds of outdoor activities and keen to take you along for some climbing, snowboarding or hiking.
Also keen to share all my knowledge about planktonic creatures in lakes and streams, measures to increase Biodiversity in agricultural areas and all nerdy facts you got to know on Safari in South Africa(;
If the timing is right also gladly taking you along on all sorts of Festivals (thou you might need to take over a shift at the bar;) )
