CURRENT MISSION

Learn more, do some good stuff.

ABOUT ME

Working as a research engineer. I enjoy studying, learning new things, see new places, meet people and help people. I'm trying take things seriously, with humor. :)
I have been two years in China, learning Chinese, so 我会说中文。

PHILOSOPHY

Transparency, honesty, education, some adventure and humor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couchsurf when travelling, host when I have that possibility.

My first experience was a two day stay in Berlin, later I found back to CS again when I was in China. Now I'm in love with it, probably one of the best ways to easily meet hospital people and improve language skills. I met Chinese in several cities, some cities would have been a bit boring, if it wasn't for my hosts, that often leave very nice memories.

Interests

My formal education and work has been all about chemistry, physics, research and engineering. But besides that I have also taken time to travel, learnt some psychology, learnt Chinese and do some voluntary work.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch too few movies, I read books, but still too few, listen a lot to music through Spotify.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was expelled from China because of my innocent blog once, maybe once in a lifetime experience. Learnt Chinese.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am not too confident in cooking, but I can off course read recipies. But I can probably take you to a dinner at your favourite restaurant. I am an experienced listener and love to listen to your life experiences and off course I can also share mine.
