Why I'm on Couchsurfing
It's been a year that I have moved to the States and finally I have some time to travel. I have hosted a few people when I lived in Vienna but never really surfed myself, I guess it's time. I am always keen on meeting new people and making new friends. I do plan to travel as much as possible during my grad school and meeting fellow surfers sounds like the best way to do it. Looking forward to meet amazing people.
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm definitely a 'Black Mirror' kinda person.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Camping in the dunes at the shore of the North Sea in Belgium.
Teach, Learn, Share
I look at ants for a job, so if you dig weird ant facts, I am your man. I can teach you to cook a killer chicken curry. If you're interested in languages, I can get you started with a few phrases in Hindi and Bengali. I am always eager to educate myself about different cultures.
What I Can Share With Hosts
(Not an exhaustive list) 1. I can (and gladly will) cook some kick-ass chicken curry. 2. Tons of weird ant facts. 3. Lots of dark humour. 4. 🍺 🍺 5. I am super easy-going but respectful.
My Interests
I study the behavior of 'zombie ants' and am interested in social behavior in general. Which means, I love talking about bugs, and why they are so much cooler than puny humans. When I am not, I am a fun-guy (pun intended!). Grew up playing sports, so I like being outdoors a lot. I love my 🍺 and I love food. That's basically where 80% of my paycheck go.
