Finishing up my master's in economics, looking to travel a bit before the tedium of work life keeps me away from it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Went on quite few Couchsurfing trips back in 2009-2011, but apparently the site deleted everything from back then ;(

I also hosted a bunch of people in Berlin, will do so again now that I'll have my own flat with 2 rooms starting October 2015.

Interests

I like philosophy, (mostly US) politics, reading sff of any stripe, discussions about the economy (duh), movies, TV series and stupid jokes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Dune, Hyperion, Shakespeare, Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire, Swordspoint, ...

Movies: Chansons d'Amour, American Beauty, Dogma, Quentin Tarantino stuff, Coen Brothers stuff, ...

Shows: I watch A LOAD of series. I mostly like comedy (Archer, Arrested Development, Sunny in Philly, ...), but also drama (The Good Wife, Political Animals, West Wing, ...).

Music: You can easily play your way into my heart and/or pants with a Western Guitar - thus also my love for the Man in Black.
I also like "alternative" rock bands: Maximo Park, Arctic Monkeys, Wombats, Phoenix and the like.

Games: I love RPGs (Baldur's Gate, Dragon Age, ...) and Hearthstone on PC, and I play Magic.

Food: If you're a restaurant, give me a tasting menu with lots of interesting foods and 5-12 courses and I'll throw my money at you.
In those rare times when I can't afford to spend 80 bucks on a meal I eat Vietnamese, Japanese, Döner, Currywurst, basically anything.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Germany, Italy, Ukraine, United States
