I am mechanical engineering student at Karlsruher Institute für Technologie. Despite being a hard working student, I try to be very active in many other areas! I play instruments, I do a lot of sports, I quite enjoy dancing, doing arts (drawing, painting, etc.), and so on. I am very joyful and enthusiastic, and I am always open to talking about pretty much anything (being it super interesting or just silly random stuff), always in a respectful way. I also try to be helpful to others, and to help as much as possible so that they can have a great time in their journeys! I like dogs, I don't like tomatoes, I think Godzilla is the King of all Monsters, my favorite fruit is the watermelon, I think ostriches are pretty weird looking animals (but still cool), one of my biggest dreams is to swim with a whale shark, I am somewhat afraid of clowns, llamas are just wearing clouds as sweatshirts, and I like jokes, like this one:

What type of public transportation do bees take??? ............... They take the BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling is an important activity as it allows you to meet new people, understand new ideas and cultures, and to discover new places. The more you see, the bigger your curiosity grows! The more you travel, the more you realize that the world is not just a big 6,371 km radius oblate spheroid, but a beautiful place with a lot of amazing people :D by opening my place, I give myself the opportunity of learning from others, of sharing what I know, and of helping others to keep on going with their many adventures!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think studying in Germany, in a great university, is something very amazing. I cherish this opportunity and the education I can have quite a lot.

I also pet a goat once. That was pretty dope

What I Can Share with Hosts
