About Me

Hey there :)

I exist to understand and admire this big, strange world.

I usually carry a hammock and a small notebook around. I like cats, old trees, chocolate and water in motion.

My favourite way to travel is hitchhiking: you get to talk to people you would never have met and never quite know where you are going to end up.

Nice to meet you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel, not to see buildings, but to meet people, listen to their stories and share mine.
Also of course, I'm travelling on a budget.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Any music that is played live is enjoyable to me. Otherwise, I mostly listen to all kinds of rock.

Movies:
Fight Club, The Big Short, Shining, The Martian

Series:
The Midnight Gospel, Rick and Morty

Books:
I love books that are a little worn and smell like old paper... mostly I find them in one of those exchange bookshelfs inside old telefoneboxes.

Audiobooks:
Cabin Pressure. The perfect thing for long nights on the road.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned scuba diving.
Travelled Basque Country for a month and wrote an article on the Basque independence movement.
Crisscrossed Europe in a crazy way with two of my best friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm trying to learn how to cook, so if anyone needs some helping hands for cutting vegtables and lets me look over his shoulder, I'm definitly up for it.
