About Me

Welcome to my profile and thanks for actually reading it!

To keep it short: I was born in Switzerland but from 2009 to 2017 i lived in Bogotá. I am half Swiss, half Colombian. Now back in Switzerland for a Masters degree.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have made such great experiences surfing, the least I can do is trying to give a surfer a great time visiting Colombia.

Music, Movies, and Books

This part used to be way to long, so I'm gonna try to keep it short.

Music: First of all, I love Radiohead, but I'm also really into The Clash, Joy Division, Motorama, Nick Drake, The Black Keys, Jack White, Arcade Fire, Björk, The Shins, Girls in Hawaii, to name a few.

Books: Because of my job I read a lot of contemporary colombian authors. In my spare time I read all kinds of books, fiction, non-fiction, classics, philosophy, ...

Movies: Sooo many! I will just name a few that pop into my head right now: Being John Malkovich, The Breakfast Club, Drive, In The Mood For Love, Harold and Maude, ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Designing a book. Moving to Colombia. Doing street art.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can squint with only one eye, but I guess I can't teach that to anybody.I would really like to learn more about beer, wine and whisky. Or art. Or food. Or music. Or anything else.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good read, a nice talk, a meal, a beer, a laugh, my couch in return.

Austria, Colombia, Croatia, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Monaco, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
