CURRENT MISSION

Finding out how cool it is that everybody is so different! --- There isn't anyone you couldn't learn to love once you've heard their story.

ABOUT ME

I'm Sander, that is what you already found out! Currently working and living in Porto. Relatively new here in Portugal but enjoying myself! Before have been living in Nigeria, Indonesia, Denmark, Hong Kong and Belgium, and of course my favorite city Amsterdam:). I have been studying in Antwerp, business and sociology. As the most of you I also love traveling, want to see as much of the world as is possible in this life!

I would like to think of myself as very easy-going, very open-minded, respectful, and kind. I am a curious person who loves learning/exploring new things and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Do not underestimate how the small things in life, can bring you the biggest happiness!

Happiness only real when shared with others

Always smile, because smiling is the only language that everyone understands.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Like to host people who are traveling to Porto. Still need to explore the city and country myself so would be happy to share those experiences with other couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love CouchSurfing and have had some amazing international people stay over. Also while im travelling for work or for leisure, i try to meet up with couchsurfers and stay at their places. This is a great way to meet new people from all over the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

Really into movies, as long as it is realistic!

Like all kind of music, as long as the voice i am hearing..is one of a woman! Love reggae-ton, Latin, pop, soul, RnB, hip-hop.

I like reading but I am a slow reader, so when people advice me to read a particular book, they need to be sure I will like it because I will invest quite some time in it. When the book really inspired someone in what kind of way, i will definitely read it!
