About Me

Working as a Security Consultant in Amsterdam while living in Utrecht. I love learning new things and am always busy improving myself.

I'm currently living with my girlfriend, who I met a while back on this very platform!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started out as a host for travelers in Utrecht. This allowed me to invite people to my home and get to know people's motivations for traveling, as well as their life stories. During my own travels, Couchsurfing allowed me to harness a network filled with great people to feel at home no matter where I was. Not only was I surfing with people, I also participated in public Couchsurfing events and private hangouts. So far, my overall experience has been really good, making friends anywhere I go. That's why I am hoping to continue doing this :)

Interests

I am in love with nature. I can go on long hikes and look my eyes out at all that mother earth has to offer us. I will never get enough of this! It is like a drug to me.

At night, I enjoy hanging out with great people and share conversation. I am very passionate about politics and love discussing it as well so that I can learn from others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to almost anything (standard response, I know :p). However, if I would have to pick two of my favorite genres it would have to be country and hardstyle (or EDM in general).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After finishing my masters, I went on a one-month road-trip through Texas (and technically New Mexico and Colorado as well). No amount of words or pictures can describe the experiences I had while I was over there.

Teach, Learn, Share

My area of expertise would be IT, more specifically Security. Other than that I always love sharing travel stories!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Delicious Dutch treats, liquor, board games, and company!
