ABOUT ME

I am 24 year old student who enjoys traveling, meeting people from all around the world and loves learning about other cultures and languages.
Apart from my studies of computer science I enjoy playing the guitar (even though I'm rather a beginner^^), singing and doing sports. I'm also interested in the field of Social Entrepreneurship and I am an active member of Amnesty International.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness" - Peter Benenson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had an awesome time couchsurfing in California last summer. The people I met were absolutely great and I hope to see them again. :-)
