Visiting witchdoctors and sewage treatment plants are among my favorites, but I'm up to head to the countryside or explore the city as well!
Description
Hey there!
I'm an Environmental Engineer from Munich who likes to get stuck in other countries on the way to his projects. I guess I'll just list some interests:
Geography, Cycling, Exploring, Skiing, Table Tennis, Hockey, Planning, Aviation, Dancing around the room at 4 AM, Teaching, Geopolitics and conflicts, Science and engineering (professionally wastewater treatment, chemistry, geology, geotechnics, hydrology, risk management; just for fun quantum physics, astronomy, earth sciences, math, biology, ...) and if you read that far, you!
It feels amazing to participate in a project you want to support with honest effort - helping where you possibly can to make an actual difference in the end; for the project, yourself and the people you've been working with. So I definitely look forward to experience another trip of a lifetime, where I'll be able to see beautiful nature, learn a lot about new cultures and styles of living, be far away from home and the related old habits, have a lot of fun doing quite a different kind of work I'm not used to and finally, to meet up with strangers, with whom I hopefully can more than just work with.
Generally speaking I'd say that I have a honest and direct personality (ok, I'm German, that's just how we are), am optimistic and always manage to keep calm and practical in order to master any difficult obligation, problem or time. Furthermore I'm open-mined (who could have guessed it on this platform?), have a good attitude towards whatever is coming and basically get along pretty well with anyone open for a little conversation.Interests

More details about your skills
So far I always prefered solving arbitrary math and engineering problems over physical work, but this doesn't mean that I can't handle something different, I'm a quick learner and definitely look forward to anything you hosts can come up with. I have experience with teaching, everything regarding (waste)water, risk management, computer-related stuff and bicycles. I think I can also use at least some tools without looking like a complete idiot nailing nails in their fingernails (no guarantee)

I'm German. This means I'm allergic to everything that can make me sneeze, up to 3 min without stopping. But on a dietary basis there's nothing to worry aboutSpecial dietary requirements
