Just a human being exploring the world. I love to discover new places, new countries and new cultures. I have an unsaturable curiosity for life and humans. Everybody has a story to tell and I think listening to other people's story is the best way to learn. I also love to share my own story and view on life.

I was born and raised in the Netherlands and I've lived in Amsterdam for the last seven years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people, visit place that are not on the touristic maps, meet locals and spend time in unknown places. I want to discover :)

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music, I can basically listen to any genre, ranging from pop music to techno, deephouse, hiphop, indie, mantra music or rap. At the moment, I listen a lot to Milky Chance, Agnes Obel, Bonobo, Angus & Julia Stone and Oh wonder. But this will probably be different next week.
I also love to read. My favourite authurs are Geneen Roth, Elizabeth Gilbert, Eckhart Tolle, and Thich Nhat Hanh.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a lot of pretty amazing things in my life, but one of the most outstanding things were my first 10 day vipassana course which made me understand myself a lot better.
