My name is Kieran Okerstrom, and I'm studying abroad in the UK for the 2016-2017 academic year. I'm looking to meet some people in Germany and learn more about German culture. Some day, I'd like to live outside of the US, so I'm exploring the world to learn about different cultures that might suit me best!

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

For me, it's been difficult to travel around because I've been trapped in the landlocked state of Iowa. Now that I'm in Europe, I'd like to go to as many places as I can. I'm not really interested in tourist attractions, and I think local people know the best places to go. Couch surfing is a great way to make these connections!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I have never been given much opportunity to travel until now, so the most amazing thing I've done is write thousands of lines of code over the summer during an internship. Hopefully couch surfing can make the answer to this question more interesting!

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I'm from America, and I love to talk politics. If you'd like to learn more about the US and our political culture, I'd love to share. Also, as a scientist, I'm quite passionate about my work, and I would love to talk about anything relating to medicine, genetics, mathematics, or computational science. I'd also love any recommendations on where to travel in the future, and I love to hear travel stories and live vicariously through others' experiences.
