I´m a 36 yo paramedic and medical student as well as having a few part-time jobs. Hence I´m pretty busy, but try to squeeze in traveling whenever possible... (usually associated with some uni requirements or so). Back home I´m sharing a beautiful flat with 4 lovely and very dear friends! I´m really lucky in that respect! We´re a little family...
I consider myself as easy-going and very tidy (prob. too tidy occasionally), however, sometimes finding myself in the need to get a rest having my private time. However, it is important to me to have folks around and meet new people. Usually - when travelling- I have more energy to spend on socializing and exploring whatever´s around...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We do have CS staying with us, that is usually sorted out by the girls... (hence I don´t have any references)

Interests

Currently dominated by work as I´m a bit obsessed with medicine, however, I love getting out and about whenever I got time and energy (which does´t happen very often at the moment unfortunately). I love Scuba diving and generally anything that has to do with water, hiking, beer gardens, ...

Music, Movies, and Books

There´s a lot ranging from old school punk (I just say one thing: RIP Joe Strummer), Ska, Reggae, Indie, Folk, ranging up to even Classical music and Trip Hop/Electronic (if it´s nice...)

Movies, well, Books, well, oh, one thing def. pops up: Black Books
and then of course things like The Big Lebowski, Clockwork Orange, ...

Oh, there´s one book that I recommend all people in the world to read: The Checklist Manifesto - How to get things right (by Atul Gawande)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Extensive diving around Scotland and some other parts of the world, studying/living in Scotland, ...

Helped the women-who-is-just-about-to-become-a-Mum delivering a baby (one of the most beautiful things, def.!)

Teach, Learn, Share

Time, labour (I don´t mind giving a hand with whatever needs to be done), food, passion about diving, medicine, and a lot of otter things ...
