Overview
About Me
Still student, enjoying life and try to learn how to live it in different circumstances and how to become a good person.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to host people and show them around. As traveller I prefer camping and learn to become expert in urban camping, but perhaps one day I might look for some company and a couch.
Interests
Biking, regularly wandering around the Netherlands on my bike, discovering that the country is very divers and beautiful. Repairing/improving bikes is my hobby too.
Reading, novels, philosophy, history, politics, natural history, society and its development.
Ice skating, an addicting experience of a very complex body movement and speed.
Music, playing old music (pre 1800) on the piano in absence of a harpsichord, and recorder. Listening Bach and that kind of music.
Hiking, trying to visit annually the Dolomites or Pyrenees. An annual winter group hike in the snowy vogues is the years climax.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: everything by Bach if well performed, French baroque harpsichord music, recorder music. I like modern types of music but I am not a great fan of anything specific.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spending a day on the ocean with local Ghanian fisherman and bbqing the fresh fish after being recovered from seasickness.
