CURRENT MISSION

Finding inspiration for thoughts about what to do with my life after I graduated

ABOUT ME

I am an open minded person, and love to meet people with different opinions. For me honesty is the most important value. I am a thinker, I love one on one conversations with people, I am not that much of a group person.

PHILOSOPHY

"In the midst of a fabulous array of historically unprecedented and mind boggling stimuli...whatever"
Thomas de Zengotita

In a world where there is so much to choose, so many information fired upon everybody, people feel like they are able to construct their identity. In fact, what the great array of choice does, it that what you choose does not matter anymore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I am travelling on my own through the south of the U.S. I just joined CS because friends recommended it to me. In two weeks I will be back in Utrecht, and I'll be glad to show you guys around!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have any couch surfing experience yet, I hope this box will fill up soon though!

Interests

I like learning new stuff, listen to other perspectives on life/the world/politics, I like music, playing the drums, watching soccer, playing volleybal, drinking beer, having fun with friends, travelling (of course), reading non fiction books, dancing, renaissance and 19th century art, and a lot more.
