CURRENT MISSION

Absorbing knowledge from people from all the corners of the planet and getting to know myself better through the eyes of the world

ABOUT ME

What can I say about me? I've always been interested in exploring and sharing knowledge and learning new things, that's why I want to become a researcher and a teacher in the future.
I used to be shy, but as a grown-up I've learnt to enjoy meeting new people, which brings us to my recently discovered interest in travelling.
I'm outgoing and love to have fun in a healthy way. I don't drink nor smoke, but I don't mind people doing it around as long as they are respectful and responsible about it.

Basically that's all, glaub ich...

PHILOSOPHY

That's something to discuss in person ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to contribute with my personal experience as humbly as possible and give at least as much as I get back from the Couchsurfing community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've made quite a few meaningful bonds through Couchsurfing, and hopefully there are more to come :)

Interests

I really like having thousands of hobbies: drawing, reading (specially graphic novels), writing, playing pen and paper RPGs, learning new languages, singing (mostly when no one is looking), playing the guitar (at least I try to!) and more recently the ukelele, listening to good music (specially live), going out and playing table football!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Any able to make me deeply feel, wildly laugh or think for a while, like Arrival, Paprika, Lost in traslation, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, Murder by death, Stranger than fiction, and a long etcetera.
Music: Anything that gives me goose bumps when I listen to it, but mostly alternative and rock. I wouldn't be able to name a favorite band though, there are too many...
Books: If it keeps me up all night, I'll love it. I specially like science fiction and graphic novels, Watchmen being my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once helped an orang-utan pick the broken, crunched up pieces of a wooden object that she had accidentally started to eat directly from her mouth. It was her who approached me asking for the help and I was happy to oblige. I have more primate stories, so if you are interested, do not hesitate to ask!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have studied psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy, and as a researcher my area of interest is evolution. I can spend hours talking about the human mind, and how it got to be what it is today over the course of gazillions of years. I would really like to learn more about other sciences, like physics or biology. Or anything that differs from what I know about, really.
Apart from that, there are two things that I specially like: languages and music (although any kind of art could be included here too). I would love to share what I know and learn as much as I can about them.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make a mean Spanish omelette and I am fairly good at baking vegan treats.

Lots of stories, both real (i.e.: anecdotes with primates as mentioned above), or fictional (i.e. :all the quests and adventures I've gone through with my Dungeons and Dragons character and my fellowship).

I can show you how to play the ukelele in five minutes :)
