CURRENT MISSION

I think the best way for everyone to get along is learn and understand other cultures.

ABOUT ME

Can be quiet in the begin, but good sense of humour, openminded, honest, and I certainly say wat I think. Love to meet new people, when I have a trip with my boat I always allow my guest to bring their friends, this way I've met people from all over the world, and it's always been great to to talk to them.

PHILOSOPHY

In the end it will be alright, if it's not alright...
it's not the end!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host a lot!
I feel like I'm getting addicted to hosting, it's a great way to meet interesting people from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just hosted my first couch surfers, they were awesome. :-)
Just after a few months I did a trip trough France couchsurfing, it was amazing and I had some super hosts!
Getting addicted to hosting, the surfers I get are so much fun and interesting.

Since then I hosted a lot of people, and it's always been fun and suprissing!

Interests

I love photographing (I know... who doesn't), wandering through cities looking for urban art. I started rowing 3 years ago, now I'm trying to get to the last level so I can row in the fastest/lightest boats.
Have a drink with my friends and talk about anything.
I'm a volunteer at the Amsterdam Friday Night Skate (every friday night, a skate tour trhough Amsterdam, see the website www.fridaynightskate.com)
I love going to concerts and festivals.
etc.
Generally I try to live live to the max :-)
