Hello! I'm Bauke, an open-minded musical adventurer. I just moved from Amsterdam to Vilnius, so am looking for new friends and roommate(s). I work as marketing strategist at Vinted, an app that let's you buy and sell vintage clothing and accessories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to visit new places, but hotels and hostels are often the same. Meeting likeminded travelers is nice, but immersing into the local life can be much more interesting and special. I prefer quality over quantity, always.

Interests

Playing saxophone, jamming with synthesizers, going to concerts and music festivals, watching documentaries, motor biking, windsurfing, running, boxing, camping, hiking/climbing/trekking, cycling around, (in general just playing outside), reading, parties, board games. Exploring new things!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A Dutch, open minded and friendly but also rational and direct view on life, mixed with my traveling experiences. I like to be challenged by and exchange thoughts with those who have different customs and philosophies. Also, I can share some of my music with you.
