I'm a 22 year old Swiss guy living in Basel, Switzerland. After working in a daycare for a year, I spent half a year travelling through South America! I am now studying Sociology and Political Sciences since 2023, on the side I work at a local bistro at the river.

I'm interested in playing guitar, live music, books, movies, kitesurfing and climbing. :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To find a roof over my head for a night ;) in a spontaneous way that allows me to connect with people and gain a little insight in different perspectives on life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Doing an exchange year in Ecuador!

As a 16 year old, in the middle of high school, I had the opportunity to do a student exchange with Rotary and I lived in Quito, Ecuador for a year with 2 lovely host families!
It was an incredible experience and it influenced me in more ways than I'll ever realise.

What I Can Share with Hosts
