I'm a 27 year old journalist, born and bred in the beautiful city of Amsterdam.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

My first experiences with CouchSurfing were my roommates hosting several people from all over the world. I liked it so much that I started hosting people as well. After surfing myself a couple of times in Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao, Valencia and Alicante), I haven't been active for a while. But CouchSurfing brought me nothing but great experiences and I'm looking forward to meeting more people from all over the world this way!

Unfortunately looking for a permanent place to stay right now and not able to host anyone 'till then.

Movies: also too much too name just a few... I'll give it a try anyways, American Beauty and Das Leben der Anderen are two of my favourite movies.

Books: Joe Speedboot - Tommy Wieringa (NL), Extremly loud & incredibly close - Jonathan Safran Foer.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Paddling in a canoe enjoying the sun and a view that consisted of nothing but some beautiful and quiet bounty islands. That was living in the moment...

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard once said: 'Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom'. Keep challenging yourself, do things that may scare you - it tends to take you where you actually want to go in life!
