I'm currently living in Utrecht in the Netherlands and am finishing my masters degree. I would describe myself as an creative, open minded and very adventurous person. I love the thrill of spontaneous trips to new places which gives you a feeling of exploring the unknown. I also think it's important to leave your comfort zone every now and then, keeps you young and alive :) My instagram is: colinzeabas

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never couchsurfed so far, but a lot of my friends told me amazing stories of their couchsurfing experiences so I want to give it a try :)
I would love to meet some new people and get to know each other.

Interests

-Surfing, nothing beats surfing to be honest. Either in cold and harsh conditions like in Ireland during the deepest winter with strong winds and cold water temperatures or on tropical islands in my boardshorts!" It's always perfect and makes you feel so damn alive!
-In wintertime: snowboarding
-every other day: skateboarding
-And I looove cooking, especially korean dishes (which I learned from my former Korean flatmate who would always feed me with delicious dishes. I love you man)
-and I've recently gotten a lot into yoga and even acroyoga
- Art, when in the mood I even paint myself

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie is definitely: "Snatch" from Guy Ritchie, maybe because it's so chaotic which mirrors my life.
Books: A short history of nearly everything by Bill Bryson, Kafka on the shore and Norweign wood by Murakami, A song of ice and fire

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-snorkeling with gigantic whale sharks on the coast of western Australia... I was so scared because of their massive size
-surfing amazing waves and being completely stoked by the picture perfect sunsets in Indonesia
-spontaneously driving around all night on a motorbike with another CSer in Vietnam and climbing over fences to break into empty tourist attractions … then getting chased by a guard and almost getting attacked by a watchdog

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I'm good at surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding, so I could gladly teach you those things. I can also give you some German lessons if your interested.
I will gladly cook up some yummy dishes that I know for you and would love to learn some new typical foods of your country :)
I can also show you around town if I happen to have time.
