About Me

CURRENT MISSION

carpe diem!

ABOUT ME

I am an open-minded guy slightly crazy as it ought to be. Like doing sports, travel, going out. At the moment i am on the edge of starting up a company together with a friend.

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once so you better enjoy it. Always try to make the best of a certain situation. Carpe diem!
I truly believe that by treating people in a right way and with respect good things will happen to yourself as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By offering my couch and meeting interesting people when i am in my own country and by surfing some couches during my travels: a perfect way to get into contact with local people and different cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Up till now I only have a few couch surfing experiences (all great :). I try to change this in the near future...

Interests

Most of all I like to have fun. My interests; travelling, sports, festivals, party, salsa, languages, cooking, … I like challenges and variation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Concerning the amount of adrenaline pumping through my veins it was definitely the benji-jump I made in Cusco (peru). Standing on top of a 122 m platform yiehaaaaa. Only thinking about it raises my heart beat.
During my travels I have seen lots of amazing things e.g. the waterfalls in Foz de iguazu (Brasil), machu picchu (Peru), Salar de uyuni (Bolivia)… My half year stay in Chile in general was an amazing period. To many things to mention… and many to come :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Always like to improve my languages. For the moment, it would be nice to practise italian/portugues.
