About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my PhD while traveling

ABOUT ME

I love being in foreign countries and discover new places, new people, new cultures and food.
Open minded, looking for the new. Enjoying conversations and reading and walking through areas I've never been before.
I love science, especially systems biology and bioinformatics in which I am currently finishing my PhD.

PHILOSOPHY

He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.
Douglas Adams (1952 - 2001)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting people whenever I have time and room. Showing the city and drink a coffee or beer together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only good experiences sleeping on foreign couches and having people on my couch.
Experience in Athens was amazing. Found a last minute Couch and had a great time seeing the city and night life.
I met my girlfriend via CS and we are now for 2 years in an amazing German/Colombian relationship.
