About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying the fact that I just finished my exams for this year and that I am able to host you guys! :D

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laidback and easy to talk to guy, usually up for almost anything. I study Psychology at University (4th year now) and I work as a bartender as a part time job.
I'm a huge geek. I love everything that has to do with fantasy and/or videogames. I still hope to satisfy my inner geek one day by LARP'ing (Live action Role).

My room: 22 square feet, enough room to throw down a matrass :) 2 min walk to the city centre and a 1 min walk to the most beautiful park Nijmegen has to offer. Floor level doors open to a garden of around 200 square feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've heard so many great tales of people surfing and hosting, that I just really want to be a part of this!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None, but I expect that to change soon! ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I can appreciate a wild variety of music, but the music I mostly listen is techno/deephouse and metal. Though there's nothing like an acoustic tune on a warm summer's eve :)

Movies I absolutely loved: The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Fight Club, The Grand Boedapest Hotel, Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, Das experiment, Pathology, Requiem for a dream, Moonrise Kingdom. While making this list I realise I love way too many movies to make a fair selection, the rest of my favorites you're going to have find out in person :)

I'm currently reading The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan, book 10/14, so still have a few books to go, yay :)

Also as mentioned before: I might not look the part, but I'm a huge geek. I love a lot of videogames and fantasy stuff (e.g. I play Dungeons and Dragons each Sunday) and can talk about this for hours, given the appropiate person to talk to^^
