CURRENT MISSION

To learn!

ABOUT ME

I was born in Germany but moved to Aus with my mum when I was little, and grew up mainly in Byron Bay.
I've travelled heaps, my mum took me over seas for the first time when I was 4 months old, and I had been to over 40 countries before I was 6. I REALLY love travelling!
Studied IT Networking and worked as a Network Admin for a few years, but at the moment I'm fulfilling my social obligation by doing civil service, working as a tutor in a language school in southern Germany teaching English and German. In July I'm moving back to Aus to study programming in Melbourne.

PHILOSOPHY

The more you understand, the less you have to remember.

I distrust camels, and anyone else who can go a week without a drink.

It's not who you know, it's whom you know.

When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein

Why do feet smell and noses run?

Sensation tell us a thing is.
Thinking tell us what it is this thing is.
Feeling tells us what this thing is to us.

He who studies books alone will know how things ought to be, and he who studies men will know how they are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have always had a free spot on my couch, when I've had one, however I have not yet had the opportunity to do so via this website.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I think the last experience I had with couch surfing was when me and my best friend were staying in a youth hostel in Berlin. We got to know a nice girl from Holland who was staying in the same room, and she invited both of us to come back to her home with her and stay on her couch, and 48 hours later, there we were. That's what travelling should be like!

Interests

Computers and computery/gadgety things in general, flying, riding motorbikes, languages, fixin' mechanical stuff that's broke (and that ain't)

• books

Music, Movies, and Books

Yes x3.
Would take way too long to list it all, so I'll just stick to a short and sweet 'yes'.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I definitively proved the existence of the Higgs particle, but was unfortunately involved in a very serious battle of wits with a raccoon who had, no doubt due to their shininess, stolen the keys to my motorbike, and subsequently forgot to write it down.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more than happy to help out with computer issues or questions to the best of my ability, be they errors of the ID10T and PEBCAK persuasion, or more technical.
I also enjoy language related shenanigans, my areas of expertise being English, German and Russian (albeit very basic)
