Hi I'm Erik, or as my friends call me Enriquí,

I'm an easy-going and well travelled guy from The Netherlands.
Always respectful to other people and would do my best to be a pleasure to be around!

The end of decembre 2016 I quit my job as a projectleader at a Dutch engineering company in The Netherlands.
I studied civil engineering and worked for 13 years and thought it's time to leave the hectic Dutch life and take a break now.

Love to travel, live life, and get lost in new cities.
I'm pretty relaxed about what I do when abroad... anything from sight seeing, to enter pubs and bars, just going out and explore :-)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Meeting the unusual, the unexpected, and the unconventional.
I'm a passionate traveler and love meeting people from around the world and explore different cultures.
Couchsurfing looks like a great way to get sucked into the local life, instead of seeing the local life from the sideline as a visitor.

Haven't had a lot of experience yet as a couchsurfer, but that will hopefully change soon :-)

Intereses

Travelling, explore new countries and meet different cultures
Going to music festivals
Go for a suba dive in cristalclear waters
Practice martial arts
Do some running sessions from time to time
Riding motorbikes
Food, I like to make great dishes and enjoy tasty food made by others combined with some nice wines

Música, películas y libros

Music : I'm open to all kinds of music depending on the mood ranging from rock music, to electronic dance and salsa music.

Movies: offcourse diarios de motocicleta, but Pulp Fiction, The Beach, The Matrix, Train Spotting, Shawshank redemption, Schindler's list, Scarface and the Godfather movies are among my favourates.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Just be yourself and don't try to impress others with things you do or have done.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I like to cook and love to share Thai and Indonesian dishes, and I can teach English.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Since I have my own motorbike with me, we can easily discover nearby places.
I can patch your flat tire (not my favourate activity tough) and we can offcourse share life experiences and great travel stories.

Besides I'm good company and like to have fun :-)
