ABOUT ME

This profile was created when Eysi (myself) and Krissi did their epic journey around the Middle-East and the Indian subcontinet in 2008. Hence the confusing CS name. Since then it´s been used by Eysi during his various rambles and by us both when in Reykjavik, Iceland.

I studied mathematics with a minor in philosophy and I'm currently working as a software developer. Hoping to intertwine the both in near feature and venture in the world of neural networks, complex systems and artificial intelligence. Also played semi-professional basketball as a youngster.

When not wrestling with numbers and logic, I like to hang out with my daughter, do marathon dance sessions at the many fine clubs of Berlin and of course travel. Which is probably why I'm such a fan of beat literature, old folk tunes, long train rides and all the other cliches. The further off the beaten track the better.

I'm currently living in Berlin with my girlfriend and baby daughter (and some other people actually, so no stranger to communal living).

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
