About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring south america

ABOUT ME

Hi, I am currently travelling for a year in South America. I love traveling, meeting new people and explore countries. Having heard the experiences of other travelers about couch surfing (most good, some bad and some really funny), I think it would be a great opportunity for myself as well to meet local and other travel minded people!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take yourself to seriously and be open minded for new people and experiences!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

I love travelling, meeting people and especially the unexpected. Ending up via via or accidentally at a gig of a small local band or special local place that you as a traveller wouldn't directly find - makes my day!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies that I enjoy go from Love actually to Shawshank redemption, Music from DJ Tiesto to populair pop or cumbia - all depending on the moment/mood. I read quite a lot of books, mostly novels and some thrillers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On all the travels amazing things happens. Activities that you will never forget (a nomads trekking in Mongolia, Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu, Salt Flats in Bolivia) but also unexpected surprises like ending up in a club on the top of a mountain on Moro de Sao Paolo (little island in Brasil)or a concert of Conmocion (cumbia band in Chile) in an old amphitheatre.
