About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get a pet giraffe

ABOUT ME

Hi! I´m easy-going, laid-back and open minded person. At least, thats what I think of myself. Better check the references section for a more objective stance :D
I like travelling (I guess most people do at CouchSurfing), because of the nature, cultures that you get to see, but mostly because of all the different kinds of people you get to meet. I have been studying International Business in the Netherlands for about 2 years now, which I greatly enjoy. I lived in the Netherlands for quite some time, but also lived in Sevilla, Spain and Barcelona. I´ve also studied history which resulted in me knowing a lot of useless facts and dates when people died.

PHILOSOPHY

Don´t be a dick.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Started with Couchsurfing by surfing in Andalucia, after that I had the opportunity to host myself in Mataro, close to Barcelona, which was awesome! Hope to host more often in the near future :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Classic Rock usually, but basicly every genre.

Movies: I strongly believe the Austin Powers trilogy is the best thing to happen to humanity apart from toilet paper.

Literature wise my favourite book is: How to influence people and win friends by Dale Carnegie

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First time travelling alone... So. Much. Freedom.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a bit of Dutch, German, English or Spanish. I speak fluent Dutch and English, and a reasonable amount of German and Spanish, so if you´d like to patch up your knowledge of any of those languages I could help ;).

I´m currently trying to learn Arabic.
