I am a guy you like to have around. The type you call "kind"; Always in for a laugh and most of the time up for an interesting conversation. As a true psychologist I like to listen. I'm interested and I like new things. That's the main reason why I like to travel. Finding interesting new people, cultures, events, nature, etc... It all makes me happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to go travel in the United States and a friend of mine told me about his excellent experiences with this medium: Fun people, a place to stay and interesting information about the cities I want to visit.

Interests

Hobby-wise, I like to curl up with a book and I love to explode at a party. My friends would probably describe me as the one who likes games. Anything from soccer to chess to monopoly will do.

• books
• partying
• board games
• playing piano
• play soccer

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Sixto Rodriguez, Fat Freddys Drop, Bach, Jesus Christ Superstar (a guilty pleasure indeed)

Movies/tv: Django, anime series like Death Note, The Wire

Books by Terry Pratchett, Agatha Christie, Benjamin Franklin

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most important things I've done were helping friends in need.

More interesting is making a giant hart at Valentine and leaving it on the train with the message "I cannot be with my girl today, so please help me to take this hart to my love in Groningen". When I called in the evening the hart had apparently arrived, and my girl was obviously thrilled.

Hitchhiking to London in an ape-costume was also a good one.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to hitchhike, how to play the piano, how to juggle, how to let go :).
