Data scientist in the making - Recently graduated from Warwick and am still adjusting to that adult life.

I come from the Hürtgen forest (for all history nerds) and after doing a fair bit of travelling, I must realise I am still pretty much a mountain boy at heart. I love hiking on small mountain trails and climbing up rocks, I love the quietness, the fresh air, and the beauty of the pristine nature. I am an avid mountain biker, but some thugs stole my bike in Montpellier a few months ago and I'm still not over it - RIP

Pro sustainable eating and living: I try to be vegan, minimise waste and travel eco-friendly
I support economic and social equality, social progressivism, climate activism and fight unsustainable capitalism, right-wing ideologies and animal abuse

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Stayed with many amazing Ozzies and Kiwis a few years back and decided to pick up couchsurfing again.
After living and studying in so many parts of the world, I'm settling back in Aachen life and want to give back to the community.
It's the first time I have my own permanent apartment and my couch is ready for y'all

PS: Not here for hookups

Interests

I'm way too invested in football and am an avid Liverpool and M'Gladbach supporter. I played table tennis competitively for years and fancy playing pool, volleyball and drinking games that involve balls. I also play the bass and played in a band for a couple of years.
I like pubbing and am occasionally down for a fun night out if there's a techno party

I love music and rarely is there a moment when I'm not listening to something: It's all a mix of indie-rock, indie-pop, psychedelic pop-rock, German hip-hop and minimal techno. Current favs: Kummer, Bilderbuch, Von Wegen Lisbeth, Sticky Fingers, Tame Impala, Bootleg Rascal, Tash Sultana

Movies: Into the Wild, Tom meets Zizou, Shutter Island, ... Also watching too many shows on Netflix, mostly documentaries, The Office, IASIP, Scrubs, Stranger Things and Dark (!)

Recent books: The Doors of Perception (Aldous Huxley), The Art of Loving (Erich Fromm) and Herr Sonneborn geht nach Brüssel (Martin Sonneborn)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm actually super afraid of heights, but skydived above Franz Josef Glacier in New Zealand - best feeling ever!
