About Me

Hello dear couchsurfer,
We're two friends from Switzerland with the amazing opportunity to travel the world! We love surfing, thus we begin our trip by folowing the west coast of central américa before going to Asia!
Back home, I work as a robotics engineer at the University of Lausanne.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I love traveling with my backpack and exploring new places.
But what really makes a trip special is meeting people along the way!

What I enjoy most is sharing experiences, ideas, and culture with locals — it adds so much depth to the journey.
Of course, Couchsurfing can help save money, but for me, the real value is connecting with people who know their country better than any guidebook.

And honestly, what’s better than making new friends all around the world?

Interests

I love so many things! My favorite sports are climbing, surfing, and snowboarding.
Whenever I can, I travel as much as possible.
I'm also passionate about good food – I love discovering new flavors and trying local dishes in every country I visit.
With my friends, we enjoy learning new recipes and putting our own twist on them with creative ideas.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, so it's hard to choose just one artist!
I enjoy listening to reggae, rap, rock, classical, jazz, blues, and swing — it really depends on my mood.

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied robotics at university, so I’ve spent a lot of time doing math, programming, and mechanics.
If you're interested, I’d be happy to teach you some of those things — or any of the sports I know!
I can also share some of my favorite recipes.

But I think the easiest thing for me to share is my motivation and happiness… and of course, a few travel adventures too!
