CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I can be a very quiet person, reading a lot, listening music and drawing or painting all the time. Recently I graduated my studies, and after a very intense experience in voluntary work I moved to Suriname, to start my first paid job.
Here in Paramaribo I feel at home but at the same time I discover new things every day still! observing people is getting one of my new habbits.
It's also very, very important for me to hang around with other people and keep in touch with my friends! I'm not a disco person, I prefer talking and laughing in pubs and bars. I sometimes feel like acting weird and talking nonsense and lukily a lot of my friends have the same deviation. Hopefully I will find enough likeminded people in my new living place!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Ever since I joind CS (right after secondary school) I have collected stories, experinces, friends, memories and more troughout CS, hosts/ guests/friends and more, all of the people I met through CS where great od even better, without one single negative experience

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted in Berlin, Copenhagen, Taiping, Marrakech, Isofjordr, Mwanza, Sittard, Den Bosch, London, Munster, Kuala Lumpur, Izmir, Kusadasi, Paris, Gent, Carlisle, Hamburg and moreI had a great time there, I met some nice, helpful, inspiring, beautiful people and have seen and done more than I could have ever imagined in this short amount of time...I think couchsurfing is a terrific way of adding an extra layer to any travel!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read books and watch movies of almost any kind. It's a very rare thing when I don't finish a book or a movie once I started it (I'm a very curious person). Also my music taste is pretty broad, the music I'm listening pretty much depends on the mood I'm in at the moment...To name a few books/films/bands I especially enjoy(ed):

-Harry Potter
-Lord of the Rings-The shadow of the wind
-The discovery of heaven
-Books of Robin Hobb, Paulo Coelho, Renate Dorrestein, Elizabeth George

-Magnolia
-2001 a Space Odyssey
-Brokeback Mountain
-LOTR
-Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

-Simon&Garfunkel
-Pink Floyd
-The Beatles
-Anouk, Krezip (both dutch from origine)
-Apocalyptica
-Yann Tiersen
-instrumental classic music (Buch and Beethoven and onthers)

Teach, Learn, Share

dare to ask!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Company, knowledge and skills in various disciplines and topics, friendship, travelling stories (on Tempels and jungle in India, fjords in Norway, mountains in Swiss, canals in Venice, cathedral in Ely, Saadian tombs in Marrakech and many more), help when needed.
I offer you my home as a stop over, a safe haven or anything in between depending on what you need,
By the way I identify as Queer and I would say I am a LGBT and straight friendly host ;-)
