Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am more the surfer kind of guy since my own place doesn´t allow a decent hosting due to it´s small size. However, if you should be comming to St Andrews, I am happy to help you find a place amongs my friends.

Interests

Cooking, seeing a bit of the town on sundays but mostly I will be diving my head into old newspapers and books.

Music, Movies, and Books

far too many to mention but I´m still somewhat stuck with British music from the 80s and 90s such as Pulp, Placebo, Oasis etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you happen to be interested in my nerdy PhD subject I can lecture for hours. Well, just joking. I am happy to teach some languages (German, English, French and a little Icelandic). I also have a good oversight over the current processes and mechanisms in the publishing business, I could host your novellist career :-)
