To try everything twice
ABOUT ME
Describing yourself is tough. But if I had to try, I guess I'd say I am a social introvert in his late 20s who writes visualization and simulation software by day, owns his own company, loves metal, plays the accordion, commutes everywhere on a bicycle, prefers travelling by train, loves beer specifically those from Bavaria, social smoker, can hang out in a bar all day, loves to just walk around a new city, carries a messenger bag, and thinks Sundays are meant for sitting in the park.
My goal in life right now is to just enjoy it... and to see the world while I'm at it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hosted many people, surfed through the US and Europe, and regularly attend/organize local CS meetups.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted several times and surfed through the states and Europe. My favorite experiences so far have been the sushi nazi in Nashville, being locked out in Munich and having to sleep on the U, and being locked in while in Amsterdam.
Interests
Travelling is my number one passion. I love travelling and will go almost anywhere. I prefer to hang out with the locals in a new city rather than do all the touristy stuff which is why I love couch surfing.
I appreciate all types of music, but you'll mostly only see power, symphonic, and folk metal on my mp3 player. I love seeing live music, especially some good danceable music like bluegrass or folk.
I'm a software engineer by day, and a code monkey at night! My area of interest is developing small, addictive games!
I love being outdoors. Hiking, biking, running, kayaking, snowboarding, I'm there!
I'm always up for going out and partying all night, although a quiet night at home can be nice sometimes too.
