CURRENT MISSION
Trying to improve my German. In, fact just trying to improve all my language skills.

ABOUT ME

Ciao!

I'm Alex, I'm 30 and I'm a doctoral student at ANU (Canberra, Australia). I am researching an Aboriginal language and get to go and live in the bush for months at a time.

I'm spontaneous and energetic and always on the look out for the next adventure. I love meeting new people, discovering new ideas and travelling.

PHILOSOPHY
Life is short, tell someone you love them. But shout it in German, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've met up with people in the past and hosted.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met with an Italian girl travelling in Australia and showed her around my town. She was one of the nicest and most beautiful people I've ever met. Also hosted some great Aussie girls in Canberra, who were the perfect guests.

Interests

Languages, travelling, music and outdoor things like running, cycling, rock climbing, circus aerials, hiking... I also love skiing when I get the chance, which is not very often in Australia.

When I'm feeling a little more sedate I enjoy drawing, playing the piano or cello, watching films and reading books, or just hanging out with friends.
