I'm an enthusiastic and curious although quiet guy. I love to hear about anything you find interesting, and can tell you with the same level of enthusiasm what I've been up to.

Generally my life is pretty boring though. I'm flying glider aircraft as hobby and doing some software development and research as profession. I suck at making music but as I love to do that you gotta deal with that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, and learning about their lives.
