I'm a research engineer at the University of Freiburg, Germany. I'm still quite unfamiliar with Europe as a whole and every new city or country that I visit is a feast for my mind. I haven't had the chance to travel a lot yet, but I hope to rectify that soon enough.

If you want to cook together, count me in! I don't cook very frequently, but I'm always interested in learning, and would happily lend a hand (or two). Also, I have a rather dry, sarcastic sense of humor, so tell me if you're uncomfortable with that I'll try to tone it down. ;P

I'm currently all about discovering and exploring new stuff - about the world and about me. I would like to believe that I'm quite open-minded, and hopefully meeting up with different types of people will help shave off any rough edges.

I can be a super-nerd if you hit the right buttons, so I'll leave the decision of hitting those buttons up to you.

Honestly, whereas I wouldn't market myself as a socialite, I'd still give me a try. ;)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

As I mentioned earlier, I'm not very familiar with Europe and haven't had the chance to travel a lot. At the same time, I don't really like being in amazing places but not having any company. So the idea of visiting new places, meeting new people and sharing our experiences, married with the possibility of having an amazing time seems to be exactly what I want.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I booked a flight to Portugal only a week in advance and then had an amazing, very spontaneous week-long vacation. This is a big deal since I normally prefer to plan things out to the very last detail.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
