Membro dal 2014
I moved to Edinburgh in 2002 to study at Edinburgh University and forgot to go home! Currently living with my partner René (he's German) on Leith Walk. A vibrant part of Edinburgh that's very near the centre and has a lot of bars/restaurants.

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
We're happy to meet new people, show them the city and discuss life, the universe and everything. We travel a lot so it's always good to meet people from around the world; you never know when you might bump into them again! Hosting : We could potentially host unless (i) you're in a group, or (ii) you want to stay more than 2 nights. We have a spare bedroom in our flat on Leith Walk.
Musica, film e libri
Mozart to Meatloaf, Bach to Bjork - I have very catholic tastes when it comes to music. As for films and books, the same applies. The last few things I read were a Margaret Atwood novel, a book about tea plantations in the British colonies and my copy of the Economist.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I was once on Bargain Hunt. It's not exactly amazing, but I still have the fleece.
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
Need something from China? Want to chat business? I'm your man. Oh, I own a luggage brand called ARCIDO : www.arcido.com -- always on the lookout for brand ambassadors, bloggers and influencers who want to collaborate.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
A good overview of the city, and historical insight if you're interested in that sort of thing. Advice on where to go out, and where to avoid. Friendship, conversation, wine...
I miei interessi
When I'm not working, music takes up a lot of time - playing the piano and singing in a choir. I also accompany René on the flute and will occasionally play the clarinet. Like to go swimming a few times a week as well as the gym, and cycle around Edinburgh a lot. We have a spare bike if you need to borrow it. Cooking, socialising, reading... the usual stuff. I have a philosophy degree and Rene is an historian.
