I just graduated in the field of social science studies about the history of science, technology and innovation. Or in other words: I am researching how Internet interferes with the way we live and work. In a way I am sorts of geek who found his way into philosophy.

Other than that, I am a hippie by heart and volunteer in an alternative circus in Berlin - I usually train with the clowns and jugglers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people and friends, exchange, share, getting inspired and inspire. Whatever comes along, whatever brings life. I am very open to any proposals :)

If I am available as host, I respond immediately within 2-4 hours, if you don´t receive a personal response my mailbox is probably flooded - no need for super long intro btw, just ask : )
