About Me

I'm Felix from a nice little medieval town in Germany called Rothenburg ob der Tauber. After living one year in pretty Sweden, I finished my Bachelor studies in Bamberg, a scenic town in Bavaria. Since 2012 I've been living and working in Munich. This chapter will end in August 2016 when I will start travelling Canada. I got admitted to UBC Vancouver for a master programme in computer science. Otherwise I got 5 months of travelling and working in a hostel in Costa Rica awaiting.

Most things I love turn around music, sports and nature. Since I was a child I've played the accordion. For the music consumption part, I'm really into good rock music. Whenever I find time, I go into nature to find some solitude. Living in Munich, the Alps are very close, making them a target for any journey. You'll find me there on a mountainbike most often. In everyday life, I work as a software/web developer (which is also a hobby) and enjoy cooking, having beers and coffees and all those things that make life worthwhile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CouchSurfing is awesome, both for meeting new people and getting a good roof over one's head. I used CouchSurfing a couple of times, both as a host and as a guest. It has always been an amazing experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: playing the accordion, programming in different languages, mountainbiking, German

I'd like to learn: not sure about this. The above things better. And all things you can learn from others in general. Maybe also other languages.
