About Me

CURRENT MISSION

get in touch with that new place!

ABOUT ME

It's so difficult to describe oneself with just a few words, even more when I see myself in a different light every single day... but that's how life moves on. Maybe it's easier to list some random facts:

-I try to pay attention to the small things of life, by observing, by listening closely
-good and healthy food is one of the best things to enjoy
-that freshly prepared food should come along with a colorful beer (I like them yellow, golden, brown, red, black and white)
-I did a masters in neurosciences and am currently searching for a PhD position in the same field
-in general, I'm quite calm (I'm not the one that talks just for the sake of talking), but I like to have interesting conversations/discussions, to learn from others and to get to know new people and things (so there's often a good reason to open my mouth - besides the food and the beer)
-I love avocados, (black) olives and concerts
-I ride my bike almost every day (let's build/be that critical mass)

PHILOSOPHY

creativity is the key

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All the people I met via CS are truly amazing and open-hearted! Unfortunately I don't have the possibility to host people at the moment...

Interests

I love music in all it's spheres - listening, playing (drums), going to concerts. I try to be creative in doing all kind of things, such as photography (b/w, polaroid...), cooking or even sportive activities, especially climbing but also tennis, squash or cycling...
