About Me

I have obtained my Master Degree of Audiovisual Engineering in September 2017. Since then, I have cycled 4000 kilometres, spent a month in Russia and got to know more of the south of France. I enjoy travelling, meeting new people and learn about specifics of each country.

I now live and work in Nürnberg area in Germany where I am a software tester for an audiovisual company.

I am often described as being a "technologic guy"; however, I am very passionate by books, movies and especially music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As globalization makes the world more and more homogeneous, I do not really like travelling in hostels and follow tourism trips.

I prefer by far meeting new people who always teach me more about their countries and lives than any museum.

Interests

Interested in programming, music, any audio technology and art. I also love philosophy, even though I can not spend a lot of time in it.

I know spend a fair share of my time cycling, especially on long distances (100km+) and I also started birdwatching!

Music, Movies, and Books

Albert Camus, Stefan Zweig, Friedrich Nietzsche

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Getting lost in a forest in Latvia
- A 4000 kilometers bicycle trip through Western and Central Europe in Autumn
- Watching the stars in the Danube valley in Autumn
- Using the most difficult way to travel from one place to another with some friends to truly enjoy the trip

Teach, Learn, Share

I can explain or read you whatever you want in French, teach you some basics of programming, some super basics of Russian language.
I can help you choosing a beer and cooking!

I start having a decent experience with bicycle trips; I may not be able to solve a technical issue on your bike but I can give you motivation to spend hours on it to travel!
