Hi I'm Chris, getting started as a (probably digital) nomad. I have no clue where that will take me, I make up my route as I go (:

I'll post trips when I'm fairly certain about my next whereabouts so do feel free to message me to meet up or host when you see me in your area - I'm looking forward to meet you :)

My home is your home. Except I don't have a home right now. If I ever settle down somewhere you're more than welcome to stay at my place though.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Both, meeting similar people and getting new influences. I've heard some great stories about people couch surfing and think it must be the best way to experience a new country - by connecting with local people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Listening to music and going to gigs is an essential part of my life. I consider myself as open to new influences, except for most mainstream pop, but have my roots in rock (hardcore punk, alternative, indie - visit my lastfm profile to get an idea http://www.last.fm/de/user/chr_96er).

Books: Webfiction (Worm, Harry Potter and the methods of rationality), Harry Potter, "Thinking, Fast and Slow"

Definitely more of a series than movie kind of person: Last week tonight, Brooklyn nine nine, Community, Fargo, Peep Show, Firefly, Death Note, The Great British Bake Off, Rick and Morty, After Life, Alice in Borderland, Dirk Gently

Movies: Popstar, Badhaai Do, The Lighthouse

Teach, Learn, Share

If you like I can give you an introduction to my field (software development, data science, cloud architecture).

I can also brew a "coffee backpacker style" and cook for you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A clean place to stay, a fridge that is never empty, I/we can cook, the basics (clean bathroom, WiFi, TV, you can borrow a laptop).

I can show you around town, take you to bars and restaurants, and even go to gigs together.
