Ready to start a new life every day.
Interested to get to know local customs and traditions but also like to understand the global context of local happenings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot and like to share experiences and stories with others. In the past I stayed in Hotels, mostly business trips for University. That is becoming too isolated though. Time can be made better use of when sharing some of it with others.

Interests

I'm in science and spend most of my time work and leisure, figuring out how to live more sustainable on earth, especially with increasing population numbers.
My interests inspire me to change perspective and see yet another angle of things, or another persons point of view.

• music
• philosophy
• food
• hiking,
