About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is a game, make it fun to play and never give up!

ABOUT ME

It's very hard for me to get bored, there is just soooo much to explore in this life! And I really don't want to miss a thing!! I just love to really SEE things, observ and getting my mind tickled by wisdom, tales and humour of others and I hope to be able by filmmaking to show others things that must be seen. Either for information and education but ofcourse also to entertain and make them laugh, shiver, think or just have a good cry ;)!
And not to be forgotten, going out for drinks and a good night of listening to life music or dancing with friends is definitely one of my favourite things!!

PHILOSOPHY

Smile, enjoy and make the best out of all

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch hiked with a friend from Istanbul to Rotterdam... We experienced some very intense travellers luck for 3 weeks and when we stranded in the middle of the night somewhere next to the highway in Germany. Somebody offered us to spent the night on one of the many couches in a closed Burgerking fast food restaurant :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Could teach you horseback riding, snowboarding, swimming, a little about Amsterdam or how to fix something with nothing...

Want to learn all about the people who'd like to couchsurf with me, and as much as possible about everything else which is new to me!

Would love to share almost everything that's on my mind. Mayby some knowledge about film/photo, and of course my couch and company!
