I studied forest and Nature Conservation, at the moment I am working as an ecologist for a dutch consultancy company. I can't do my job during the winter, so I decided to spend this period in Costa Rica. I'm doing research on the diversity of moths in tropical forests.

It won't be a surprise that I love to be outside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Probably for the same reason as you, to meet new people, learn about

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After climbing a Romanian mountain before sunrise, I almost got supercooled because I had to wait for hours in the mist, but eventually, when the mist was gone, it was all worth is because I saw brown bear! Probably the most amazing mammals in europe!
