I'm a 31 year old PhD Student in Ecotoxicology. I work on the effects of microplastics on freshwater organisms. I have lived in Cologne for the first 23 Years of my Life. I love to go to concerts of many different kinds and listening to music of many different kinds as well (Ska, Hardcore-Punk, Metal, Folk, Jazz). I play sometimes play guitar, bass and banjo ) I've been a vegetarian for 11 years now. I would say I am a bit shy at first and have to get comfortable with people, but I consider myself a good companion.
I like excercise from (Acro) Yoga to CrossFit, but don't really care for watching sports.

I have interest in many different things and like to learn and discover new thing, for which other people are essential in my opinion! I love food! I love music!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

so far just by surfing, because in germany I only have a tiny apartment. Whenever that changes I will be happy to be a host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

surfed on a couple of couches while roadtripping through California and Canada and in Peru. It's awesome how much of a variety of people you can experience! A really enriching community.

Music, Movies, and Books

Last.fm probably tells the most about my taste in music. To sum it up: lots of different styles, but guitars are involved most of the time.
