About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know travellers from all over the world, show them the city at day and night, drink a beer and have fun

ABOUT ME

All about me in this little box? Hardly possible, but I just start:
I have studied physics but many people tell me I'm not fitting in their image of a typical physicist. I'm glad it's like that. Now I'm doing my PhD in information science at Technical University of Munich in the field of medical imaging. I like doing sports like mountainbiking, frisbee, snowboarding (may quit that due to too many injuries...) or whatever comes up, especially in the Alps. Photography is another hobby of mine, mostly I like sunsets, landscapes and portraits.
When the weather is good I'm hanging out in the english garden in Munich, taking a bath in the 'Eisbach' and afterwards in the sun, 'grilling' and chilling, smoking a Shisha...
And of course travelling, that's how I got to know about this great CS-thing! I like to improve my english and spanish and go out with people from all over the world.

Interests

Mountainbiking along the Isar and in the Alps, Playing Frisbee in the english garden, any outdoor activities, I have a thing for technical gadgets like smartphones or raspberry pi, watching 1080p movies on our awesome projector, Mexican food.
