About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.” [Marcus Aurelius]

ABOUT ME

I am 23 years old and I am studying Human Factors in Berlin..that's kind of engieering psychology and I am focusing on surgical assistance systems and brain-computer interfaces. During my leisure time I love to discover Berlin with my friends, playing ping pong ;), go hiking, skiing or climbing!In the moment I am doing a semester abroad at the Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.

PHILOSOPHY

"This inhuman world has to become more humane. But how?"
[Friedrich Dürrenmatt]

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had three Couchsurfing experiences so far: in Paris, Budapest and Bratislava. Every experience was different and something special. Also my hosts were totally different in their personalities. But despite of these facts I always spent such a good and unforgettable time with them... cooking, talking, drinking, meeting friends and going out - and that's the most interesting thing about CS!
