About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying South-America!

ABOUT ME

A laidback guy in the middle of a typical Amsterdam life. I guess I have a pretty positive view on life and I'd like to enjoy it.

I studied clinical psychology and started working last year and a half. In my spare time I'd like to hang around with friends (having dinner, watching football, playing board games, going out to clubs and concerts), some dj'ing and cycling on a roadbike. Done with student life, but still like my parties. But from all the things I do, I like travelling the most... it's so worry-free to just meet a lot of people, to see places and do fun stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. (H. Keller)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

With stampot, a typical Dutch meal... ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted once through Couchsurfing, but I didn't use my account in the last four years. This explains my low response percentage. I never crashed at a couch either, I want to start surfing on this trip through South-America to get to know the continent and the people that live here better than just staying in hostels. Apart from that I mostly hosted people I met before on travels.
