Overview
About Me
I'm a people loving, crazy but friendly, hyperactive student. I get interested in almost everything I spend more than 5 minutes with, but I have a special affection for natural sciences (that's why I study theoretical physics and biomedical engineering).
I try to spend every free minute either with friends, traveling and meeting new people or doing some outdoor sports. As I grew up in Austria, mountains are a big part of my life so I go absolutely crazy about ski touring, climbing, kayaking, cycling etc.
There are so many people in this world, and I know that I'll hardly get to know any of them but one can at least try to meet as many amazing people as possible - and couch surfing could be a way to do so :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Always looking for new adventures - addicted to travelling and excited to meet new people from all over the world :)
My flatmate, an amazingly nice girl, and I are happy to host people in our lovely flat at the foot of the Jura mountains. It's unfortunately not easily accessible by public transport (only using the bus between Bellgarde and Gex) but if it fits within our schedule we're also happy to pick you up from some tram/bus/train station.
Have a nice day :)
