About Me

I really hate About Me sections.
But I'll try for you, CS people.
So just to say the least, don't get scared that I'm an engineering student - I'm also into all kinds of cultural events and loving to discover lovely hidden places in cities during long night walks. I also love nature, hiking, nightswimming, music, wine and tiny venues only locals know. I smile/laugh 99% of the time. Because what else can you do.

I am an exchange student at TU Darmstadt. Please read more about the couch stuff in the My Home section. I will host you depending on my school schedule - can't guarantee I will have time to spend time with you, I prefer last minute requests (not more than a week in advance). If I don't, I will at least tell you what to see - just hit me up and we can figure those things out. Gotta stay focused on my studies, you know.

I don't really have any specific rules (probably because I have barely hosted yet). Just be nice. I don't expect you cook for me, it will actually be enough if you give me a suggestion what to cook besides pasta (and then we can cook together if you're up for it). I actually just expect having a good time with you, so... If I see your message is a copy-paste or we don't have much in common based on your profile, then I'm going to decline you.
