I live (together with my son, 8 years old) on my own developed sustainable community housing project Arneco at a renovated farm at the boarder of the city of Arhem. Together with 15 other households we do urban agriculture on 1 hectare of land. I have a large house, so plenty of space to host people. For more information see www.arneco.org CURRENT MISSION Green the world UP ! There is only one world, and many generations :-) PHILOSOPHY The world can't be green enough. I believe in and work for a sustainable planet and society. I love to be a vegetarian :-) Please have look at my personal website focused on nutrient management: kimovandijk.weebly.com

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I love to be a host and if necessary I love to be hosted somewhere in a new country :-) COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE From the start of Couchsurfing I hosted with pleasure many people in my beautiful apartment in the centre of Amsterdam. Now I am living in the city of Arnhem. In all these years I had very nice experiences being hosted by others in Sweden, UK, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, USA and China. Thanks for all these nice moments!

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Hiking with my son on my back the Hadrian's Wall route in the UK and the Chinese wall in China. It is a pity that he grew up and is now too heavy ;-)
