About Me

Hi!
I’m a 24-year-old mechanical engineering student in my 4th semester in Munich. I’d describe myself as open-minded, easygoing, and generally quite extroverted. I enjoy spending time with friends — playing billiards or darts, hanging out together, or going out to enjoy the city and nightlife. I like a good balance between relaxed evenings and more social activities.

I’m usually quite busy during the year due to my studies and work on construction sites during semester breaks, but I always enjoy meeting new people whenever time allows.

I live in a shared flat with two great roommates. José is from Brazil and works in the IT sector — he’s very social, communicative, and loves cultural exchange. Bora is from Turkey, also working in IT, and brings a calm, friendly energy into our home. Together we have a relaxed, international flat atmosphere and enjoy welcoming open-minded and respectful guests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is something we enjoy as a shared flat, with us being especially active and enthusiastic about meeting new people, building international connections, and exchanging stories and cultures with travelers from around the world.

We like showing guests around the city, sharing local tips, and spending a good time together — whether that’s exploring Munich, having relaxed evenings at home, or simply enjoying good conversations. Of course, nothing is a must: guests are always free to do their own thing and explore the city independently.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of music, but my favorits must be Rock, Rap and D&B. If I´m watching a movie I like to go for classics like Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Matrix and so on. Lately I discovered that I´m more into reading, but it must be something I feel has a benefit to my life. Psychology books for example.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’m not entirely sure what counts as “amazing” here, but one thing I can really come up with was donating stem cells in 2022. Knowing that it could help someone in a life-changing way is something I’m genuinely proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach, Learn, Share

I thought studying mechanical engineering might be way too hard for me — so naturally, I decided to try it anyway. Accepting the harder challenge felt better than giving up before even starting, and so far… I’m still in the game.

Along the way I’ve learned that persistence, a bit of humor, and coffee go a long way. I’m always happy to share experiences, lessons learned (both academic and non-academic), and to keep learning from others as well.
