I’m an expat living in Amsterdam currently.

I’m into running, cooking, traveling, kettle-belling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsuing, and film critiquing.

I’m currently completing my Masters at the Technical University of Münich (remotely - thanks Corona) and I do data science projects for startups across Africa, by working at a big big bank 🇿🇲🇺🇬🇿🇦🇰🇪🇱🇸

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Similar reason to most people, I think. Meeting locals when traveling keeps me engaged and learning. Much better to hear about things from actual people than read it online, that’s for sure!

Interests

I’m interested in language, philosophy, rationality, neuroscience, programming, math, music, and film! I love movies and can give you great recommendations!
