Hi there,

My wife and I are in our late 20's and we both grew up, studied, and worked in New Zealand. I just submitted my PhD in Chemistry, and so we're now heading to Germany so I can do some postdoctoral research and she can focus on writing, recording, and performing music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to make connections in Saarbrücken, Germany, as well as find places to stay when travelling around Europe. Also excited to host people who are visiting Germany :)
