About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Focussing on the positive things in life, because I know where it brings me if I focus on the negative, a place where I am always right, but never happy.

ABOUT ME

STARTING WITH A FAIR WARNING IF I AGREED TO HOST YOU!
If you dont show up without even a call/text or email, I am going to write a neutral reference.
Because I lose my only free time or day I had that week to help you, changed my plans or kept it free for you so I could be at home to open the door for you, changed sheets and staying up all night just in case you couldnt reach me with your phone.
I always get the same excuse, phone was died or I had no connection. Well BS, in this rare situation, 95% off the people have a phone with which you can text or email me, so you only have to take 2 minutes of effort to save me of reserving my free day, plus you steal a sleeping place from someone who did really need a host that day.

(I am only happy when you are happy, so dont do thinks because you think it makes me happy, the gesture is nice but I am weird and you dont know what I like. Dont think I deny my own happiness, I have found my happiness and now like to make others happy.)
Dont ever feel obligated to talk or chill with me out of hospitality, just always do the things you want to do, because I will do the same.
This to prevent people talking when they want to go to the city and me listening when my introverted self is trying to make it look like I can hold a normal conversation with anybody.
I do hit it off with people who know no judgement, no taboes, live mainly by their own rules (without hurting others) and everything is allowed to joke about.

I host about 4 days a week, so I dont bear to show everybody the city day after day, BE PREPARED TO ENTERTAIN YOURSELF! If theres a fun connection I will offcourse join you on our adventure but its not common I feel truly connected with another soul.

If I were to describe myself in a few words I would say: Zen, Calm, Peacefull, Laid back, Introverted, ADD, Spiritual, Caring and Positive.
To show youve read my profile use hey crazy one as message subject.

I can tell people are judgemental, just by looking at them.

PHILOSOPHY

If you are not making anyones life better, you are wasting your time on this planet.

How can you find INNERpeace, when youre OUTsourcing your happiness.
Happiness is an inside job.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind dont matter, and those who matter dont mind, . "Dr. Seuss"

God created the world in 6 days, except for the Dutch, they created it themselves. So what else am I supposed to get out of this besides we are gods?

Our happiness lies in the happiness of others. Give them their happiness and you will find your own.

The proper use of a life is to live, not to exist.
I will use the time given to me.

If the world would show you all her beauty and secrets and the only condition is that you are not allowed to tell those secrets to anyone, would you want to see it?

An individual tuned into cosmic consciousness usually has no doubt that he or she is
confronted with the ultimate reality.

The biggest risk in life, is spending your life not doing what you really want in the hope you can buy the freedom to do it later.

War represents the supreme failure of nations to resolve their differences. From a strictly pragmatic standpoint it is the most inefficient waste of lives and resources ever conceived. "Jacgue Fresco"

I dont believe in voting, I see it as an illusion that gives the thought they are in a democracy.
They real way you vote, is what you do and where you spend your money, because I believe the big corporations are running the world.
Consume less, buy local, change the world.

Dont lead me into temptation, I can find it myself!

Dont give up on your dreams, keep sleeping.

If youre never satisfied with what you have and keep goaling for the next best thing you'll never find the time to really appreciate what you have.

Time enjoyed wasting, is not time wasted.

When you dislike a certain person or act of a person, think hard if you dont do such things yourself.

Dont use money you dont have,
to buy things you dont need,
to impress people you dont like.

Dont raise your voice, improver your argument.

Bonus, if you found this line you have a good chance I will host you, just a matter of if I have the time from this on. Add Crazy Bastard at the beginning of your message.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I help wherever I can and wherever I have time to do so.
Helping surfers with a temporary place to stay until they or I have found them a job and or place to rent.
Offering a safe-zone for surfers who have been violated in their trust by hosts, by asking, wanting or forcefully wanting sexual favors or just in general dont feel safe there.
In life I am always trying to help people around me and spend a lot of my free time doing so, but have learned that it usually doesnt work unless the person asks for help.
But feel free to tell your story and I will try and help wherever I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I really enjoyed my previous surfers, had fun talks and moments and there were cases we went out to a nice out door event called "pluk de nacht".
There are still some notes of previous surfers on my mirror full of thanks and stories about how they enjoyed it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had some amazing lucid dreams and sleep paralysis moments.
Had a T-rex as a pet when i was young.
Found the answers to happiness in a vision.
Taught a parrot to say, "help, I have been turned into a parrot".

Be thankfull for all the bad things in the world, accept them when they happen to you instead of questioning why.

“If you are depressed you are living in the past.
If you are anxious you are living in the future.
If you are at peace you are living in the present.”

The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

Everything is a boomerang, if you throw it upwards.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Help finding universal answers,
Conquering fears and limitations youve put on yourself,
Lucid dreaming,
Cooking,
Poker,
Gaming,
