About Me
A Marathon Runner, A German Learner :)
This will be my second-time experience in couch surfing. Feel free to check the reference from Lars @ Cologne.
My first couchsurfing experience in Cologne is perfect. Would be awesome if I could stay in your place in Frankfurt :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Currently I am on my working holiday in Germany.

If you are German/learning German - that's even more awesome. Wish we could practice Deutsch zusammen :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
I can tell you a lot about my story of traveling in 20+ countries.
Knowledge: Science/Film/Philosophy/Sports - I am always curious to learn. I would regard myself as a generalist. Instead of being a specialist, I would rather be a solid generalist in a lot of areas. So just let me know what's your interest, what you are good at, and I am more than happy to learn from you.
I am a quick info absorber so a good and deep conversation is guaranteed :)
(i.e. The best generalist in the business world at the moment is probably Elon Musk - he is my aspiration)
Cooking: I love running, and I need more pasta pasta and pasta. If you want a good pasta meal from me. No problem, let me do it :)
Cleaning: That's important. I won't take things for granted. If you need help to do some house cleaning together, definitely no problem,
