I grew up in Bellinzona, where I did the compulsory school. In 2009 I moved to Zurich, where I started studying earth sciences. I graduated in 2014.
...in between I was in the army and in South Africa for a while...

People say I am open minded and always ready to help. I like to interact with people and exchange experiences. One of the goals of my life is to discover new places, new cultures and new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing, because I think it is fun to experience a place with the eyes of the people who live there... And it is a cheap alternative to expensive accomodation :-D

Interests

I am interested in everything which is somehow linked to nature (hiking, rocks, wildlife,...). Furthermore I enjoy both, playing and watching 'rough' sports like Ice Hockey and Rugby. I used to play saxophone and piano (...but I have not had much time to practice lately...). And last but not least...I like computers :-)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to basically everything. Although my preferences lie in heavy metal XD.
Movies? as long as something happens, it's ok :-D
Books? right now I am reading "The Wheel Of Time", by Robert Jordan (...and I'll have for while...).
