I'm a 26year old PhD student from Germany currently as a visting scholar in the United States (Missouri). As many others I love to travel and want to discover the great landscapes and cities of the US.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am always looking for nice personalities to meet, fresh minds to talk to, and frankly cheap places to stay.

Interests

I love travelling, cooking (but I am pretty bad at it), baking (in which I am decent) and consequently eating all sorts of food.
I read a lot and love to discuss. I can enjoy a good glas of beer, wine but also a good glass of water. I am politically interested but can hide that pretty well if necessary. ;)
