About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be amazed as much as possible in this lifetime

ABOUT ME

I'd like to see myself as a creative explorer with an interest in people and a passion for technology. If that sounds a bit vague, that actually means I like to play guitar, love to travel, have an interest in other cultures and write awesome computer software for a living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still a newbie, but I had my first Couchsurfing experience back in October 2012, traveled through China from the south to the north, which was an amazing experience. Now three years later I want to relive that by going back.

Interests

For the last years I like to enable my creative side by playing guitar and making music.

Since I worked and traveled in China I discovered I'm intrigued by learning Chinese (Mandarin). I can speak simple dialogues, but eager to learn more.
