Overview
About Me
I am Diederik,
There are many things that I could say, but the best thing is to connect in person... But if you are curious: everyone is free to ask :)
But after all this surfing I am still fascinated how every meeting on couchsurfing turns out to be very different every time...
PHILOSOPHY
My personal philosophy is still under construction.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I hosted a lot of people. And the latter years some surfing around as well.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had a number of surfers so far, even though 2 actually werent from couchsurfing. One person I met on the airport who missed his connection. It was great to trust someone and get a great reward! In general my experiences were great, relaxed, having extra housemates, sharing different views. So I guess I like it :-)
Interests
My basic needs are the same, my interests can differ from year to year and since I dont feel like updating my couchsurfaccount a lot, I just mention that right now I am into meeting new people (and I will give an update if this is no longer the case :) )! But probably Ill find you interesting, since youll be my host.
- spirituality
- outdoors
- making music
- and more
- the (inner) universe
- and playing a game of chess
Music, Movies, and Books
I cannot say I have any favorite musician, even less can I do a prediction about what music I will like in the future. Music creates a feeling, and my feelings change over time. I embrace change in music. I like John Cages approach: the best music is the music that aint writting yet
I have never been a big reader, but please tell me if you read a book that inspired you!. I like movies with a surreal atmosphere.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I liked the last time I created a wave in a professional tennis tournament in an at that moment quiet dutch tennis crowd. After the wave, people started to support their countryman much more who was playing at that moment. After that he started to play much better and won the match. He later said that the support of the crowd helped him to win the match. I really like to experience that you can change outcomes if you dont let yourself be led by possible behaviour or possible thoughts of others (in this case the tenniscrowd that potentially doesnt like people screaming for a wave) too much..
Teach, Learn, Share
I dont know who I like to learn from, I guess it depends on what I want to learn which I am not sure about yet, but maybe a good surfer can help me with that.
I am not made to teach, but I hope that some people will love some of my doings and maybe do it together
What I Can Share with Hosts
That probably differs on a daily basis and on the person Im hanging around with, but my idea is to offer a lot of friendliness and I offer to be a good guide if the times right for that and in any case do my part in making this meeting a nice one!
