About Me

Hola! People call me Etienne van de Boel and I live in the Burgundian south of the low lands, otherwise called Holland. My excellent Spanish as showed in the first word might be indicating otherwise but I`m as Dutch as you could find them. However, I am also the kind of dutchman that likes to explore new places, meet new people and enjoy la vida, probably accompanied with a glass of alcohol or a freshly poured glass of apple juice.
I have travelled around the southern hemisphere, visiting SEA, Australia & Latinoámerica. If you ever come across Breda, i'll be happy to welcome you in my house and offer you a couch for the night and a funky evening at Breda.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Quite simple: to offer and enjoy nice sleeping places for and at people. Because that is what everybody does.

Interests

To travel on a pretty small (undoable) budget to non-western continents, playing tennis, learning new languages, swimming, cooking (though not a masterchef, at all), non-binge-watching some series and preferably action/comedy/dystopian/classic/GuyRitchie movies, drinking cervezas, wine, applejuice or special beers from lovely neigbouring Belgium.

Music, Movies, and Books

Eclectic music taste, but hate deephouse, deeptechno, deephardcore, basically everything that is overdone. I have read 1984 of Georgie Orwell ones, it was pretty cool.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Biking from Hanoi to Saigon (V`nam) on probably the shittiest bike ever, but without it breaking down. Though it was quite wrecked after the trail.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching languages is a cool thing to do. Not very good at philosophy or life lessons though. Still funny thing to do, especially when folks don`t understand I`m not serious.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A dazzling conversation in (maybe) your own language, strong stories, some weird pictures I have on my phone, some mediocre food, a sixpack of beers (unless you`re in NewZealand, you guys are bastards with those beerprices).
