CURRENT MISSION

Trying to spurt some roots and educate myself O_o...

ABOUT ME

ALL about me would quite some years worth of characters I am to put down here.

But okay...

I'm an easy going, chilled out type. A musician, drummer mainly, by heart, therefore respecting all kinds of music styles. In my dreams I fantasize about Japanese mix and pickles, not the sour ones... the sweet-sour ones. When I think of sweet-sour-pickles my heart starts to race, my muscles start to contract, my mouth turns into the Niagara Falls with all the saliva poring down from my glands... I'm also very fond of reading interesting books and such.

...I like climbing trees.

I have an interest in playing guitar, singing along with it now and... like mantra's and such, also there is a personally tuned piano flurishing my room with it brilliance... then there is the jembe, didgeridoo, throat singing... I still want to learn the art of rapping and beatboxing once :) so if you're a teacher, i'll be your student. Though sometimes I'm quite a touch student... but we'll manage :D!

PHILOSOPHY

Taking every moment for what it is, it’s perfection, it’s full glory, it’s breathtaking astonishing indescribable beauty...

...a journey through time and space in which we can write our own scripts, live our own nemesis, create our own stories about love and war, truth and distrust, engage with engagements and build our own forts trying to defend it when all we really have to do is lower the bridge and invite everyone in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

...being amazed, fascinated, overwhelmed, astonished, emotionally engaged.. being loved, being me.. Contributing to what we are, what we represent, expression of one self as purely as one can, as purely as one is.

...a trooper, hitchhiking, being tested, undergoing and fully accepting, experiencing and knowing, learning, sharing.. living.

...making a difference.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

...a visit to Paris; sleeping under a bridge sharing my blanket with my dear friend Lukas, harassing Mitch's mum with 20 other nut jobs, sharing a stretch of grass with 200 other enthausiatics below the Ifle Tower and seeking sanctuary underneath the outstretched protective branches of a tree with a wonderful girl called Lily.

After which a crazy Fin-guy, a young and friendly Polish guy and 2 sweet Austrian girls came back to Delft with us.

..and so,.. I decided to join this community.

An experience within a mere 5 days.

Interests

...a delightful set of tunes playing from somewhere unknown; am I the only one who's hearing it? A jukebox or the like enabling switching from this to that, exploring several different and astonishing domains, enjoying lasting lengths in full possession of my faculties.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My life situation as it is (was and will be), consists of a many great number of joyful events, all of which I am thankful of... not because of the specific event itself, but from what can be remembered of, from what can be learned from it and from what choices can be made after such an event... I therefore strive to experience as much as possible, which enables making as many choices as possible, which creates the possibility to experience.

...a dumpster entirely filled with perfectly edible tomatoes.

I lived in Berlin in an Ashram for six months, hitched to Jordan from there. Took a plane to India, spend some time (WAY TO SHORT!) going round a bit, mostly relaxing in the Himalaya's, and went back home to studie some more :D!

Teach, Learn, Share

Live and learn!

Ohhh.. myeah update! I'm teaching Dutch lately, and at the same time I'd like to learn Swedish.... But then I'd like to learn every language there is.. but I guess not in this lifetime...

Like I said... I'd like to learn to beatbox.. and to rap :D!

I like to share some things I picked up lately like yoga, meditation and singing mantra's.

I'd like to exchange whatever you know about martial arts. I also like to wrestly for the fun of it... I do not really get the chance to wrestly a lot lately :( So if you like, i like :D! Just for the fun of it ofcourse!
