About Me

I'm a young gay man from Melbourne living and studying in Berlin, wondering about the planet from time to time. I enjoy meeting new people from places I have never been, drinking beer/wine or any beverage for that matter in seemingly undesirable establishments , going to the cinema to see a good film where all the actors in the film are unknown to me, walking around a part of a city that I haven't been to before, revisiting my favourite cities and seeing friendly faces, keeping in touch with people over many years despite not seeing them, then finally seeing them again. I like listening to people's funny conversations on public transport, I like it when people are friendly for no reason on public transport, I like public transport in general. I like to cook with many many friends and think in these moments what a lucky person I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided a few years ago that I liked being abroad and that for probably most of the years I have left in my life, will be spent hopefully living abroad. I feel very stimulated and fulfilled making the acquaintance of new people, from different places who can maybe give a different perspective on the world. I like to visit places a little bit out of the ordinary sometimes and ugly for me is often just as interesting as beautiful when it comes to travel.

Interests

I study kind of politicsy stuff so I guess I would say that is my main interest. I wish I had more interesting things to write about but oh well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Changes a lot, probably mostly into electronic stuff these days.
Movies - I like Eastern European cinema, cool to see what stuff they put on the screen.
Books - I like to read random second books I pick up on my travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think living in all of the countries that I have lived in has been amazing. It has given me an insight into the people and that's what I love most about these experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - How to count to 10 in Estonian (you probably can already do it in my mother tongue if you're reading this).

Learn - How to count to 10 in your language (unless I already how to and in that case some weird words of your choosing).

Share - How to count to 10 in our own secret language that we will invent over the course of an evening.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think we gonna have fun. :)
