About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm generally accepted as a social person, who likes to go out with friends.
I believe strongly that 'happiness is only real when shared', so friends are of the utmost importance.
I study medicine and there is nothing else I would want to do instead. The combination of science and social contact inspires me.
I stick to the adage: 'Mens sana in corpore sano', which means I do like sporting a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's to short to complain too much.
You only live once.
Happiness is only real when shared.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I find CS a fantastic initiative. I believe it's the greatest way to get involved in the country where you go to. Your host submerges you into the local tradition and places where you would never go to otherwise.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with some people in London, who I met the year before in Mexico. Well, that's pretty much my biggest CS-experience...

Interests

Actually, there's isn't much I'm not interested in...
So you name it!
But to name the most important one: travelling!
