About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wrapping up my degree and getting onto my dream career

ABOUT ME

I'm a laidback half German half French Aussie currently finishing up my degrees in Australia. I love thinking about technology and the future, philosophy, pyschology, medicine, most things really!

PHILOSOPHY

I've taken philosophy courses and given great thought to epistemology and how I live my life. I do my best to learn and grow continually, and generally welcome feedback on how I'm doing (especially when constructive!).I'm also excited and passionate about the world and changing it, especially in bringing about positive changes through technologies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I can only surf, no hosting sorry! But I'm happy with my room at my parents' house having WWOOFERS in it, so I feel like there's some contribution there :)Once I have my own CS-able place, I will definitely post it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have couchsurfed at friends' places many times, first experience giving it a go online.

Interests

Snowboarding, reading (novels), learning, tennis, soccer, skydiving, science, economics, politics, occasional board and computer games, and more the more you know me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite author: Robert A. Heinlein
Movies: many and varied, but favourites are those that make you think, pull at your heartstrings and still tickle a great laugh out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? I'll go with a cliched "was born".

... But seriously, skydiving was pretty awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Knowledge-wise, I'm interested in virtually everything, and have a broad background.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, France, Germany, Indonesia, United States
