About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn as much as I can

ABOUT ME

I rather have an intellectual conversation or a walk outside than be in a noisy party.
Right now I'm studying for BSc in physics and math in the local University so I don't have much free time besides on holidays and summer-vacation. When I do, I usually meet with friends, practice my hobbies, or occupy myself with some random activity. I can be very spontaneous from time to time and always keen on a new adventure.

I'm a non-smoker.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know people from distant lands and make new friends.

Interests

Besides physics and math which I study at Uni, I also share great love for drawing and painting, which are also my long lasting addictions.
I am always willing to go outdoor sketching and even built myself a portable lightweight easel for oil painting so I could paint on the go.

Psychology and Cognitive Science
Film and animation
Hiking and being outside
Frisbee
