I'm a budding primatologist, learning about human primates too. Love to fill every moment possible with memory making. If it's possible, I try to make it happen, whether it's a layover trip to Amsterdam or a four hour bus ride into rural China to see monkeys.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I try to only visit places where I have an acquaintance to show me the "local" life. But that is limiting. At some point, I need to make those acquaintances, may as well be on my trip! I'm a respectful guest and open to differing perspectives. As long as we can have a few laughs, a few beers, and see a few sights, I am a happy camper (on your couch)!
