Heja!

I'm Andy. I'd consider myself a pretty relaxed and interested guy to all sorts! :) As profession and passion I am working as a forest ecologist, trying to figure out how trees, forests, ecosystems are working. I love all kind of sports, but I particularly fell in love with paddling/packrafting. If not travelling, I am living in a big house with 11 roommates, obviously loving socializing with people, partying, organizing events together. I am a big fan of writing post cards and letters.

PS: Used to have this profile together with a friend I was travelling with, that’s why some references refer to us both ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A nice network to connect people that stands for open minds and against racism, discrimination, homophobia, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music preferences are infinite and pretty varied, but I am as delighted with some 70s folk/rock or oldskool rap as with hardcore/punk or some nice classical compositions.

Books are also quite diverse - I enjoyed Stefan Zweig and Hermann Hesse a lot. However, I noticed a decline in reading classical books due to many papers and uni-books recently …

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driving to Alaska in the winter and staying in Kuba at the end of the same trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

Definitely can share a ton of stories from travelling, explain forest functioning, or can tell you about my crazy life in a big communal family - we'll see! I love all kind of speculiarities in your country, culture, family, individual mind :D
