About Me

I am a born and raised Dutchman from a village near Eindhoven. Sinds I was young my father has shared his stories with me about the various trips he made to destinations all across the globe and the four years he lived in West-Africa. These stories and the trips we made together have inspired me to travel the world. My greatest journey was two years ago where I flew to Cape Town in South Africa and made my way back home to the Netherlands by local public transportation. During all that time on the road I met a lot of amazing people and I hope Couchsurfing will let me meet a whole lot more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First off, I am new on Couchsurfing so I am still figuring things out but my goal is to meet new people from all over the world to share stories with. I have traveled quite a bit in recent years but never couchsurfed before. So for now I am planning to start with just attending a couple of meetings and events near my home.
