I go by Bas, I’m from The Netherlands, born in Alkmaar.

Activities I really like to spend my free time with are reading, visiting museums, watching film, listening to music and walking through the forest and being at the seaside.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I would like to learn from the stories of travellers from other countries and see their city/country from their own perspective and learn from that.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I'm into a lot of different styles of music as I have a very open mind to it so I tend to discover as much as possible.
Some examples of musicians I'm into are Anderson Paak, Massive Attack, Johann Johannsson, Jamie Woon, Olafur Arnalds, Tame Impala, Bon Iver, Moderat and The XX.

I'm a big fan of the cinematic artform, mainly independent film.
Some examples of directors I'm interested in: Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, Terrence Malick, Martin Scorsese, Denis Villeneuve.

Books:
Satire, Philosophical, Coming of Age, Dystopian, Cyberpunk

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I would be able to share my culture with others and talk about interesting topics like politics, arts etc.
I would be able to show you the countryside in the north of The Netherlands (West-Friesland) as I was born in Alkmaar and grew up in its surroundings. I could offer a drink, food, valuable tips during your stay and be able to explore places together.
