About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn from our experiences, seek opportunity and most importantly help out

ABOUT ME

Hello prospective friends!
My name is Roger, currently working in Hamburg doing my undergraduate thesis as apart of my degree back in Australia.

I am eager to explore, meet anyone who likes to live and learn from the people around you. As I am studying engineering I am very clean and conscious about things in general.

I get around via bicycle in Hamburg, and so far no distance is too far. So if anyone is up for some outdoors exploring or just meeting up for a beverage of some kind, let me know :)

PHILOSOPHY

In learning to know other things, and other minds, we become more intimately acquainted with ourselves, and are to ourselves better worth knowing. - Philip Gilbert Hamilton -

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just travelling at the moment, and living in dorms at a university. So unfortunately can't offer a couch. But many of my friends have heard about the CS effort, and I have heard from some of them... So no doubt when I get back to Australia it will be my honour to offer a couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only had one GREAT CS experience here in Germany so far. Where a fellow surfer and I were on our way to the Bavarian Alps. Along the way we stopped in at Nuremburg, where we didnt have a couch until we went to a regular Cs social gathering at a pub. We humbly introduced our selves and had a great couch by the end of the night right in town. Thankyou Nuremburg Couch Surfers!

Interests

I am interested in: Many sports, Outdoors adventure, Electronics, Computers, Environmental considerations, sustainable energy solutions. And of course a social drink of any kind with new and old friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well I have no real favourites, I like this form of entertainment when you need not to think after a long week or you are exhausted. But often prefer reading academic literature if any or watching ted talks :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I must say the High Tatras, bordering south Poland and northern Slovakia

Teach, Learn, Share

well this seems like a cool idea.. I would happy to talk to people about basic mathematics for engineering, or computers, micro-controllers, C, Matlab and simulink (some engineering software) or production sound and lighting. I have a very open mind and love hearing people stories and understanding life for everyone.. So Always eager to learn
