About Me

I am a software engineer born and raised in the Eindhoven area. For my studies I moved to the city itself and I have stayed there since then. Besides software, I am interested in history(especially from 1940 onwards) and I like visiting museums. I also like building and tinkering stuff, such as cars and electronic devices.

When travelling myself, I like fascinating places better than beautiful ones. I really don't like crowds and try to go for hidden gems when possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am pretty proud of the city and the country that I live in and love to share that with other people. I also think you should always share what you have when possible, so I gladly do that with my home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most electronic music, like Kraftwerk, Above and Beyond, Armin van Buuren and Paul Kalkbrenner.
Concerning movies I am a giant fan of science fiction. I am a huge (Star Wars) geek, but I also loved the matrix and interstellar for example.

I don't have much time to read anymore, but Looking for Alaska by John Green still is one of my favorite books of all time. When I do have time, I mainly read non-fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being at the edge of a glacier in Austria was one of my favorite experiences. Organizing the biggest programming contest of europe(NWERC 2019) was also a very special experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've also got a meal to share of course! Please tell me any dietary requirements, since I do not have any allergies or other wishes myself, but I am very willing to accomodate them.
