Hi fellow travellers! My name is Gerrit-Douwe Beerda. I'm from Leeuwarden, Holland. I am 26 years old and currently making a living as a sales representative.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Given my current situations I don't have much to complain about, but choosing my true path through life and love has always been my, but I guess it's anyone's, challenge. I figured that meeting new people like this might be a good way to see the world from new points of view. This is why I would like to invite you to my home, to meet you and to share different worlds, so we may be more open to it's wonders in our days that follow.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of movies! Mostly sci-fi, humor, thriller and animation, but actually, it could be anything. Examples would be: Into the Wild, 2012, In Time, Up, Breaking Bad, Marvel movies, The Other Guys, etc, etc...
Music, who DOESN'T love it!? I love all sorts of music, but I guess I mostly listen te pop, rock, hardrock, lounge and laidback guitar music. Then again I could also listen to classical music, or jazz, or blues. Like I said, I find it hard to choose. For every seperate moment there is music.
About books, I have to say, I'm not much of a reader. I know, it's bad, and I tried several times, but it's just not my thing(yet?).
