CURRENT MISSION

If I'm the smartest guy in the room, I'm in the wrong room.

ABOUT ME

Easy-going, open-minded, calm and inquisitive Swiss university student.

I was born and raised in Bülach, Switzerland, and have since been fortunate enough to travel, study and live in various countries, incl. New Zealand, China, the United States, the UK, Namibia and South Africa.

In 2015 I started a PhD in International Development at Oxford University, for which I am currently in South Africa for 'fieldwork'. My research focuses on African soldiers who fought in apartheid South Africa's former security forces.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Up until now, I've couchsurfed only together with my ex-girlfriend, Lee-Shan, with our shared profile 'lenny_n_lee'. We've couchsurfed together in China and Germany and have only had very good experiences. Unfortunately, we never had a place with enough space to host someone.
