About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just finished my PhD and took some time off to go travelling

ABOUT ME
I'm a very social and open minded person and I love to try and discover new things. I'm very optimistic, enthusiastic and and get easliy overly excited about new discoveries. Have a bit of a silly humor. Big animal-lover!

PHILOSOPHY

Das Leben ist kein Ponyhof!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I am quite a busy scientist, I can't assure to have time to host someone, but I'm always willing to show people the lovely city of Gent or to meet up for a drink..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed and hosted a couple of times and always liked it. I also think it's a great way to meet new people, share stories and get to know the real people instead of just visiting a city.

Interests

  • traveling
  • music
  • science
  • cinema

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy music, concerts, festivals. I like bands like The National, Arcade Fire, The XX, Beirut, Angus and Julia Stone, Bloc Party, Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala, The Shins, Alt-J and I could just keep on going... I'm also always up for discovering new bands!

I love the cinema! Recently got a projector so I kinda have my own cinema at home now. Big fan of Wes Anderson!

I love to read, but have way too little time to do so.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkeling with a whale shark in Panama.

I love to cook (vegetarian) and would love to cook a meal for my hosts. Or make some traditional German cookies :)
