ABOUT ME

I am a quiet and laid back fellow who thinks deep, enjoys science, playing the guitar/piano, and am always willing to go on good long hikes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I firmly believe that the only way to really experience a place and its culture is by spending time with the people: Swapping stories, questions, philosophical thoughts, and beliefs. And also just getting out and adventuring far far away from where all the tourists are.

Interests

I am a biologist who enjoys getting out into the great outdoors and rock climbing, hiking, relaxing etc. I currently do metagenomic research.
