Overview
About Me
Hey. What's up? I'm a 24 year old who decided to quit his job and see the world while he is still young and fearless. I am based out of Amsterdam, where my uncle lives, but I'm hopping around as much of the world as I can. I play the drums, a little guitar, and sing in the shower. I'm equally at home in a big city and the great outdoors, but I prefer the latter. Hope your having a cool day, and that reading about me made it cooler.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a really interesting and exciting community that offers a chance to meet people that also fit this description. You pretty much have to be a chiller to open up your home to strangers in such a public way.
Interests
Music is my top passion, followed quickly by art and all kinds of literature (but especially the short story), but you could say The Arts are what I center my life and activities around. I also enjoy cooking, which could be said is an art unto itself. I'm also in touch with my animalistic side, and find no greater peace than when I'm miles away from civilization, though I am often inspired by great cities and magnificent architecture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I started a magazine called Nikolaos that features art and writing by myself and my friends, as well as people who contacted me wanting to be a part of it. As I'm traveling, I'm working on a zine-compilation about each of the countries that I visit.
