I am a happily married man with a 1,5 year old sun. I like to meet people from all different cultures. Maybe that's why I love to dance Argentine tango. I got my own tango school in the Netherlands (state of tango), which I'm running beside my engineering (/policy advising) 'academic' career.

I am a positive, social being, that likes to sing, dance, play the guitar, hang out in cafés and go to theatre.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet local people when I'm travelling. That's the best way to really get infiltrated in the area you visit.

I especially try to meet people who love Argentine tango like I do, because it gives an immediate connection, and -often- a lot to talk about...
