I am a 28 year old PhD student. I love the sea and nature and nothing is better than to have a nice chat across a beer or two.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people on my travels, share experiences and generally broaden my horizon.

Interests

I like being active and explorative; a nice walk through the city or nature, going hiking or swimming, drinking beer with fun people. But I also love to just relax, have a nice cup of tea and read a good book.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very varied when it comes to music. I love playing the harp and saxophone and I love listening to everything from lofi beats to jazz to metal.

I am an avid reader of fantasy books. My favourites include the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Game of Thrones.

I'm less of a movies person and more of a series person (movies are just too short for intricate character developments). There are too many great shows. Currently re-watching Gilmore Girls and recently finished Fleabag.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to the world exhibition in Shanghai and Milan.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach
I can teach my languages (German or Dutch), playing harp, or some science stuff like statistics or psychology.

Learn
I am generally enthusiastic about learning things. So anything you have to offer is great!

Share
I will always share my home made cookies or cakes, a good story and beer.
