About Me

Hi!
I'm an 18-year-old student and entrepreneur (even if "entrepreneur" is quite a big word).

I'm a sporty guy, with a big passion for anything that has to do with economics (particularly for investing).
A cult guy, but that is easy off. Nice to argue with, even though sometimes i'm a bit stubborn.

Just the ambitious hardwork kind of guy which would do anything to reach his objectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From mid-September (2018) I will be starting university in London. I will be studying at the London School of Economics. I need to find a place to live in for a minimum of 4 months, which hopefully is cheaper than student housing (which itself is more expensive than what I thought).
