Half-Austrian, half-French computer scientist, linguist and psychologist with a passion for languages. Currently teaching bioinformatics, databases and webdesign at a technical school. There are so many interesting things, places and people on this earth, I would study and travel my whole life but after having started to work I'd say learning new things through work is pretty nice too :) I like the sound of airplanes leaving the city. It reminds me of traveling and faraway places. I don't smoke and I eat plant based / vegan food only.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I just love getting to experience the real country when staying at somebody's place and I love having the world in my living room when hosting people.

I've been pretty active a while ago, done a loooong break and now more active again. Here for the statistics:
Hosted 84 people and surfed 63 couches - 6 times reciprocative [Salzburg, Toronto, Prague, Luxembourg, Petersburg, Taibei] (January 2013)

For a full list until 2012 see my old profile: https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/259942/profile/legacy

音乐、电影和书籍

It doesn't matter in which language - I have a bad taste for music. I always fall for those way too commercial tunes.
Love books about greek mythology reinvented (Madeleine Miller etc...) and in general books about economy. In 2022 I broke my record and read 300 books in one year.
I try to watch all kinds of legendary cult movies and interesting alternative movies, but most of the time I forget about them as fast as I've watched them.
I used to love Chinese serials, especially Wuxia from Jin Yong, but these days I'm more into American Netflix shows.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've done rafting and canyoning in the spanish pyrenees which was pretty amazing, I've seen where the oceans meet in Tarifa, I've searched treasures on the ape rock of Gibraltar, have seen ancient arab palaces in the south of Spain, eaten good portuguese Francesinha in Porto, have done yoga on top of a lost pirate tower watching over Atlantis in a lesser known area of Ibiza, ran through a drug parade in front of the coloseum in Rome (not participating), I have roped down from a 20 meter high bridge in Bochum, Germany and have lived for 5 months in the awesome city of Barcelona.

I have seen the beautiful north-east of North America as well as the beautiful north-east of South America. I have seen the ground of the ocean there, explored some long sunk ships and met some very interesting deep sea creatures. I have also experienced the neverending party of the carnaval in Rio de Janeiro. I have seen the treasures of the Red Sea while diving it and enjoyed awesome train trips through Russia, Ukraine as well as China.

教，学，和分享

I love showing people my city and telling all the stories behind it. I'm also always open for language exchanges and sharing my computer knowledge.
