Hi there, I'm Marlon from Germany, Reutlingen near Stuttgart!

I'm a curious guy that likes to meet people, wander around and make new experiences. Right now I'm waiting to go to Freiburg University in october and till then I'll explore Europe for two months. I have a few passions that take the main part of my life -

philosophy (as my future subject in university) which brought me from the feeling of being full aware of what's going on to a puzzling atmosphere of live. But not grasping life itself was the prod for me to experience it :)

music production which I do since 6 years or so and helped me to get a rudimental musical comprehension (never "really" learned an instrument) and got me to the point to help out my singer songwriter friend with aCajón

... and I like to boulder a lot :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for meeting cool people, making some friends out there in the big world!

Interests

• chess
• bouldering
• philosophy
• music production
• visiting new places

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always open to discuss a lot of subjects - may it be the rightward shift in Europe, healthy and ethical food, possibilites and limts of AI or the strange feeling of being alive. I'm always curious to learn something new and get to know the minds of others

I'm an enthusiastic bouldering addict, maybe it's soir choice addiciton, too? :)

Well furthermore I'm able to explain you how music production works, yet I'm not a live-musician. Anything beyond playing a Cajón is very amateur-like

Oh yeah and my chess-skill is at a 'ok'-level, so there's that if that's fun to someone :)
