About Me

Hey,
I am an open minded, self-reflecting, extroverted and energetic scientist-
passionate about teaching, self-improvement and adventures. I try to move around a lot and have lived in Germany, London, South Africa and Perth in the last two years.
I am up for any kind of adventure and am particularly interested in the history and culture of places. The goal of every evening is to find myself drinking in a pub with locals ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Always wanted to start, never got around to it - until now. I guess Australia is a good starting country for Couchsurfing. Would love to get to know some locals and understand how normal life works.
Gonna do a short trip to the east coast (Adelaide to Sydney) beginning of November.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mhhhh...
I organize conferences as a hobby - my biggest one was a German-Italian exchange with around 70 participants over 4 days. Was a lot of work and fun in the end :D

Teach, Learn, Share

O boy, can we do this in person?
Anything science related, happy to share.
Youtube, Podcasts, Books - you name it.
