ABOUT ME
God dag, Ciao, Hallo, Ola, ik ben Eric.
I am a 25 year old Dutch dude from Amsterdam with Italian roots, looking for nice adventures on my way. I am currently done studying and trying to learn as much about video making as possible. I live in Nijmegen (NL) Milano (Italy), Rotterdam (NL) San Francisco (CA, USA) and currently in Amsterdam (NL)

MY NEXT BIG TRIP
During a trip to Norway last October I made my first short movie, which got picked up by a travel agency who is sending me to Africa to climb the Kilimanjaro and make a film about it. I will go to Malawi afterwards to also shoot a movie at a local company: one big adventure! Right now I am training a lot to be fit enough to climb this mountain (5800m) and make a film while doing that.

PHILOSOPHY
Live that dream! Pursue happiness! Serendipity!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
let me know when you want to see my hometown Amsterdam, i am always down for giving some sightseeing tours! Currently our apartment is so small that I can only host when my roommates are on holiday. Just shoot me an email!

Next Training trip:
I will be in Chamonix together with one friend on 16 - 19 january 2015 (three nights) to train for the Kilimanjaro. I want to go as high as possible to hike / ski, and it would be awesome to meet some locals for a beer and a story or two!! We will bring Dutch stroopwafels!

We went on a previous couchsurfing adventure in Bergen, Norway and it was GREAT!

3. Fete du Bayonne , France
