About Me

Settling in Strasbourg to do my Master's in immunology.
I still don't have a place so if you wanna share a flat just hit me up pfaha
Besides that I don't know Strasbourg so if you want to share your gems I'd be so down.
Looking forward to discover how's the life here!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing just allows you to discover a place you stop by and its people.
Rather than just passing through it, you can hear stories about the city/region/country and get to know underrated (underground) places.

Interests

I enjoy indoors activities such as watching TV series (there is just so much to be seen), jamming to music or drawing.
When I do go out it's mostly to grab a coffee or beers with friends (we play cards a lot), to go and shake it off at a club or to go see a movie. I also like walking around not knowing where I'm going and chill in parks.
I've been camping for as far as I can remember and I just love it. I rockclimb as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent 7 days roadtripping the Mauritanian desert when I worked there. Camping in a Khaima (typical tent there) each day in a different place in the middle of nowhere, cooking bread and meat in the sand, going fetching wood for the fire, visiting ancient libraries in villages, trying to avoid scorpions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm be down to learn words from any language really (or even sentences if you're great at teaching haha), especially German. If you have cool spots to show me in Strasbourg as well that'd be great!
Not an actual artist but I can always sketch you, people usually like that pfah
And we should definitely share our classics and latest discoveries regarding music, TV series and cinema.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very willful and would be glad to participate or do things to help (groceries, cooking, dishes, tidying up).
I can make you a playlist or a to-watch list of movies and TV series according to what you like haha
