I'm traveling for four months while finishing my master's in AI remotely. I want to experience new cultures and meet new people. I want to see the world and try new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to experience new cultures, learn from the locals and meet new people

Interests

In the past years, I've immersed myself in tennis, rowing, improv, philosophy, cycling, running, contemporary arts, crossfit, door to door sales, literature, and powerlifting. Before that I was the Dutch champion of table tennis. Now I am traveling. I dislike news and social media. I love reading books. Among others, I like novels, books on (stoic) philosophy, mindfulness, AI, ancient Rome and randomness. I like trying new things and putting all my attention into it. I love meeting new people with different perspectives.
