Hi! I'm Yannick, a man who likes people and nature. I was born in Basel, Switzerland and grew up in Mexico City. My dual nationality (German-Belgian) is due to my parents. I studied in the UK, studied and worked in Beijing and Shanghai, and am currently doing my Master's in Political Economy in Amsterdam. I also spend time in Basel and Brussels. PHILOSOPHY Reflect, engage, learn, grow and share.

Почему я на Couchsurfing
I'm here to host curious travellers and to get to know locals when I travel, as I believe getting to know similar people cross-culturally is the best way to experience traveling and learning about other's' walks of life. If I were to host someone who was willing, I'd show him my favorite corners of the town, but more importantly I like the idea of sharing a roof, food and laughs with someone.
Музыка, кино и книги
