About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My job - improving cancer treatment

ABOUT ME

I'm a PhD-student. I live in Amsterdam since I started university. My hobbies are reading, drawing (just started), cooking and of course traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

I try only to do stuff that I like. I even have a job that I like. Sometimes something happens that makes you realize that life is short and might me shorter than you expect it to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have any couch surfing experience yet. I hope to see some different couches when I'm traveling through the US. And maybe I will have a couch available someday, if I have one that is big enough for a grown-up:)

Interests

There's not so many things that I am not interested in.

  • dining
  • cooking
  • reading
  • traveling
  • drawing
  • surfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Romcoms, Harry Potter, Comedy. Since I bought the Friends DVD-box I spent a lot of time watching Friends.
I like different kinds of music, but especially the softer rock, like Bon Jovi, and musicals.
I like books in the genre of John Grisham or Dan Brown. But I also like Harry Potter. At the moment I'm reading a fantasy book and I found out I also like that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was very impressed by all the beautiful temples and golden shiny Buddha's in Thailand. But on the other hand, the people were very poor, but still rather spend their last money on the temples than on food.
An amazing thing to do was riding on an elephant.

Teach, Learn, Share

As you can read in the previous items I'm not the one to teach:) I still have to learn everything.

Countries I’ve Visited

Egypt, France, Greece, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, United Kingdom
