About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover Amsterdam

ABOUT ME

I am a Researcher at a crisis helpline in Amsterdam and I am passionate about conducting research for a good cause. I'm originally from Germany, but I already live in the Netherlands since 2008 (time flies...).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am actively involved in the Couchsurfing community in Nijmegen and also like to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only surfed twice, in Amsterdam and Paris. But I'm looking forward to doing it again!

Interests

My major interests are creative things of all kind.
Because of that I spend my freetime listening to- dancing to- or singing/playing along music.
I think i can really say I like almost all kinds of music and I still continue to discover more :)
I also like to discover new food, meet new people from different cultures and discover new places.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
Memento,Prestige, 50/50, Life of Brian
Fight Club, Sweeney Todd, Blues Brothers
Music:
I'm really passionate about music in general and like almost every kind of music. Recent discoveries are Sivert Hoyem, the Soul Travellers and Imany, but as I update my profile maybe once a year that might not be recent by the time you read this.;)

Books:

Musicophilia
The man who mistook his wife for a hat.
And a lot of scientific books for my work ;)
