About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life more and more, doing more and more

ABOUT ME

I'm a social and optimistic person. I'm not loud but not too quiet for nice conversation. I like to enjoy life, like to laugh, like to be active. I can enjoy beautifull nature in silence but also enjoy a good party with a beer!

PHILOSOPHY

I think it's always important to stay positive in the way one looks at live and they one looks at the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't been couchsurfing often but mainly use Couchsurfing to meet people when I'm traveling or working abroad. Meanwhile, I'm open to receive guests as well or to show them around (when I'm home).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met great people so far, it's really giving traveling an extra dimension!

Interests

I've got a nice (inernational) job that gives me the opportunity to travel for work every once in a while. I quite enjoy that and I'm happy to do so. When I'm at home I like to spend time on my motorbike in the evening or in the weekend. Doing maintenance as well. Also I like to mountainbike, especially downhill. Too bad Holland hasn't got mountains so I don't get to do that often. Furthermore I'm interested in many sports. And also, I like to see my family and friends, trying to keep up with my social life and for some nice chatting.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't read much really, although I feel good when I finaly do.
I don't watch much TV or movies. If I do then I prefer comedy or action movies. James bond for instance is always ok.
Music I like a lot. For instance; Dance, Rap/Hip hop, Rock, Indie, Techno/trance (especially with a nice deep bass). But also pop, Dutch music or relaxing guitar or piano music for instance I like. Quite diverse, depending on my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On my first travel outside Europe, to Nepal, close to the Himalaya mountains. There I sat on a rock and looked over an impressive valley full of green rice fields. I never forget that view. It was a moment I realized I was going to see the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a technician and I like to work with my hands. Still I mostly work with the computer and work with programs like Autocad for technical drawings, and the usual programs like Word, Excel, Project etc.
I would like learning to surf, to cook, ski-ing, etc...
