Hi, I'm Tom from Germany.

I am 22 years old and currently live and study in Aachen, Germany.

My hobbies, albeit being cut short due to my studies, are reading, cooking, hiking and playing badminton as well as doing tai chi.
I like to engage in interesting discussions around science, rationality, philosophy and all kind of other interesting topics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to be able to travel the world and meet interesting people along the way. Getting to know local people results in a much more enjoyable stay and special experience.
