Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
exploring the world before the real life (i.e. work) starts.
ABOUT ME
I love travelling and meeting people. I love the outdoors and doing sports (sailing most of all recently).
I recently graduated with a PhD in engineering (aerodynamics) from UVic. I left home in Victoria, BC, Canada on Aug 20 to travel east across the continent. Let's see where I end up.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm not sure about this one yet. Or better: it keeps changing. But i love to meet people, to talk with them, hear about different attitudes and learn more about life and for life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I like seeing new places. And this is always best, when i also meet new people. Hence i like the combination: seeing new places AND meeting new people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Haven't done it much recently, but a few years ago it was big fun! I'm sure it still is.
Sadly I never have lived in a place yet, where I was able to accept guests. Keeping that for the future.
Interests
all kind of sports and outdoor adventures.
(lots of sailing recently, ultimate frisbee, climbing, beach volleyball, snowboarding, kite suring, icehockey, ...)
I love beeing out in the nature!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
It is amazing how many beautiful places and amazing adventures are out there on this planet!
It hard to name a single, special one. Maybe sailing across the Pacific? But every day another one seems to be best.
