Hi I'm George!

I'm from the Netherlands and go by day to day as a maths tutor. I studied to be mechatronic engineer, but feel better teaching people things they don't understand. One would say I'm kind and patient. Interested in life and earth, sustainability, self-development and all kinds of other things (too much to mention).
I can appreciate conversations about music and movies, although I know more about music than I do about film. I like books, but I don't read so much.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

While on a trip in South America I have crashed twice with the help of Couchsurfing. In the near future I'd like to offer the same to guests that are visiting.
