I'm not available at the moment 'cause I'm traveling, but from mid-September onwards my flat is open again for everyone.

ABOUT ME

I'm working as a mechanical engineer and study management and economics at the University of Innsbruck. I'm eager to meet new people (well most of the time they are not really new, they are usually at least 20 years old, but they are new to me ;-)) who can challenge the status quo and are willing to share and communicate their perspective on live.

PHILOSOPHY

It's not the distance traveled which defines how big your journey has been, but the difference between the person leaving and the one returning.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel and am happy to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting some great people in Innsbruck and surfing all the way to Gibraltar, Spain and back. Looking forward to do more of it soon.

兴趣

I'm into all kinds of music and play the guitar myself.
I love to learn new stuff at work, university or in the exchange of thought with friends and travelers.
I'm love languages and how they are related to the cultures which use them.
I'm currently training for my first marathon in October and I love to bike up the mountains surrounding Innsbruck.
In the winter I'm all for alpine touring.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Working full-time, renovating the apartment I now live in with my own hands and finishing my studies at the same time is definitely something that I'm proud of, tough it definitely cost me some years of life expectancy and financed a big share of Costa-rican coffee-farmers.

教，学，和分享

I'm fascinated by the natural sciences as well as psychology and anthropology. I can teach some German, guitar while sharing a drink.
