Hi, my name is Arjan and I am from the Netherlands. Traveling is my biggest passion in life and I have usually 1 trip planned in advance.

Between november 2018 and march 2020 I been traveling for 13 months in mainly South Asia and some European countries. It was my first travel alone and the best time I had in my life with all the travelers and local people I met on the way. Meeting people from all over the world is making me feel alive and realising that this world has so much beautifull to offer.

February 2022 I decided to travel again. 8,5 months of travel through the most amazing countries all over the world. North & South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East, South East Asia and Central Asia. I made new memories for a lifetime.

I still live with my parents in a small town in The Netherlands. I actually never had someone who contacted me to stay as it is definetely not common to see tourist around here. In case you are around, just let me know and I will check the possibilities of hosting you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all over the world and to make new friends! Throughout the years I have met several amazing people on Couchsurfing and it will always stay as a part of your precious travel memories. I am very interested in what other people has to tell from their experiences and to make new memories.
