About Me

I work at a local mountaineering shop called Wilderness Exchange and climb as much as I can while applying to graduate school.

I have a degree in electrical engineering and I'm planning to go to graduate school next fall. My focus is renewable energy and I want to study smart grid technologies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm really enjoying Colorado right now. I would like to share that with the couchsurfing community. If you want to go climbing, hit me up and i'll show you my favorite spots. My schedule is all over the place but i'll try to hang out and show you around.

I also love meeting new people and live in a pretty cool neighborhood. I could also meet up for coffee or drinks and point you in the direction for awesome Colorado adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked from Salzburg to Amsterdam in a day

Teach, Learn, Share

If the weather is good I can teach you how to climb. I have extras of almost everything and can find whatever is needed if you dont have any equipment. If you're already a climber Eldo is only 10 minutes away.

We can talk about renewable energy and the environment. I'm fairly knowledgeable about the energy side but i'm always interested in learning more about sustainable agriculture, water conservation and more ecological issues.
