About Me

My dream is to sail around the world! I'm saving up for it, and in the meantime I'm trying see the world while working.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

October of 2015, done with university and fully settled into the world of 9 to 5 jobs, I declared that I want more. More adventure, more culture, more learning.

So, since June 2016 I'm in Europe for 6 months. But there's much more to see and experience than monuments and buildings, so I want to meet people, hear their stories, and get to know the local way of life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty happy with most movies except for horror/thriller films.

I listen to music all the time. I lean more towards the Pop/Rap type stuff: Drake, Kanye, Hoodie Allen, G-Eazy, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed the Florida Keys for a week, spending the days diving, snorkeling, and cleaning the fish my brother caught. I loved the clear water, the warm weather, and the sea breeze every morning.

Teach, Learn, Share

Let me teach you:
- Programming (Java/Android are my specialty)
- German or English
- Anything about encryption

I love to learn, and there is so much I know nothing about, I'm positive you'll teach me something.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm easy to get along with an eager to help out with whatever I can. I excel at not getting in the way and being acutely aware of my impact on others. I've received accolades for my world-class dishwashing. I'm happy to share my stories and experiences.
