About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born in Basel, a city in Switzerland near the German border. When I was one year old my mom moved to Surcuolm, a very small village in the Swiss-Alps. There I grew up on a sheep-farm. In winter I used to snowboard a lot because I could get out of the house, put on the board and ride down right on to the slopes. Sadly since I live in Zürich (University), I don't go up in the mountains as often.
To learn English I have been to California for one year. There I lived with my host-family I got thru AFS and went to North Monterey County High School. Since then I really want to travel around and see as much of the world as possible.
An other thing I'm doing is programming Apps for the iPhone. If you have a good idea for an App, I consider your first stay at my couch the beginning of a great business relationship. noo just kidding.
Since I live in Zürich, I really like to go clubbing. So if you want to experience Zürich's night life, I can help you with that.

Come CS at my place, and I'm sure we'll have a great time.
