Traveler. After Japan, Colombia and Peru now in Chile. Next days will buy a campervan in Santiago and travel 2-3 months to/through Patagonia with my camera, lenses and typing fingers.

Visual artist/innovator/entrepreneur and traveler from Utrecht, the Netherlands.

As an internationally operating startup / scale-up mentor I’m especially interested in entrepreneurial spirits and product creators. Could think along, if wished.

As an creator I’m especially interested in arty farty people; original minds that create with their hands (maybe to make some art together in the workshop).

Friends see me as a creative and free spirited man. I’m living in the city center of the center of The Netherlands (Utrecht). I love short encounters and the stories of inspiring people. Could show you around our beautiful town, feedback on your entrepreneurial efforts or take you to our art studio for some art making :-)

Ps: if you’re just looking or a free hotel and bring nothing in return, i gladly point you to my airbnb profile (since I might as well charge for it).

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Like to be connected to the world. Love new faces, new stories, new inspiration.

BUT….
As a fellow traveler you’re most likely just as attached to you freedom as I am. And since my house is small, i have some simple rules:
- you’re base is a bedroom with double bed, wifi and a tv. Feel free to use the bathroom, kitchen and toilet, but the living room I like to keep mostly to myself ☝🏻
- I like to get to know each other and might show you around, but am also ‘socially satisfied’ after an hour or two (with anyone) so please do not feel offended when I ask you to leave me be 😌
- you stay over on your own and friends are invited after consulting me 👨‍👨‍👦‍👦
- pets up to 500 grams are welcome 🐀
- you’ll get a key to the house, come and go as you like, but don’t forget to return the key when you leave. 🔑
