Overview
About Me
Hi everyone!
If I had to choose a motto to define me, that'd be "carpe diem". Let's say I'm an easy-going, open-minded and curious guy who loves taking a beer while having good conversations, no matter if about the deepest meaning of life or whether you prefer Pringles or Doritos!
As a science-lover, I've studied Biotechnology and specialized in Microbiology (no regret by now!) and right now I'm doing a PhD on HIV cure strategies. However, I'm also very keen on cinema, tennis, drawing, music... so just pick a topic and start talking!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travelling and visiting new places. Wherever. I don't care about going to 'Wherethef***isthat-istan' or visiting the new bar they have opened in the nearby neighbourhood.
No doubt for me that travelling is the sauce of life, but only meeting new people makes it really tasteful (yes, it's almost lunchtime when writing this! :P). I love meeting new people that help you grow as a human being, sharing different points of view, learning about new cultures... and having a good laugh and party together too!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies and series: A lot still to discover! Just the ones I've seen recently: Amelie, Her, The Avengers, anything from Pixar :3 (well, anything but Cars...), Trainspotting, Cube, Alien, V for Vendetta, Goodbye Lenin!, Lord of the Rings, Love actually, Game of Thrones, American Horror Story, House of Cards, Black Mirror, Please like me...
Books: As I'm also a book-eater, just the ones I better digested last months: The catcher in the rye; 1984; Brave new world; Animal farm; I, Claudius; The house of the spirits; Our Kind: Who We Are, Where We Came From, Where We Are Going.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Gazing stars on a remote island in the middle of the Atlantic. Surviving to a roadtrip through the Caucasian mountains on a car corroded by acid. Going for a walk at sunrise on a solitary village in the middle of the desert... I cannot complain! :)
