ABOUT ME

I am a flexible guy with multiple interests. I love nature and people. I like to work with people with a disability mentaly or fisicaly. I also love to do activities in nature. I found that combination in my job as outdoor instructor, skiing instructor and travelguide for people with a mental disability.
When I'm not anywhere in the world traveling or working, I will go to my parents and friends in Holland. Close to my parents lives a small hero. It's my little nephew which I love a lot. I take a picture of him with me every where I go and put it aside of my bed or couch (I hope you have some room left for the picture). I hope to meet you so I can tell more about myself and my passions.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy live as it comes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am flexible and easy going. To get me mad you would have to take a hell of an effort. I've got tons of patience especialy for people with a disability.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Becuase I dont have a home now I sleep at friends places on a regular base. Sometimes I miss my own stuff in the neighbourhood, but I love the diversity and the sharing within other peoples lives.
I hope to write about a couch surfing experience with people that I don't know up untill now.

Interests

at wintertime in January I took a train from Austria towards Switserland. Somewhere along the trip the train stoped and didn't go any further. After a while there where buses but I couldn't get to my final destination that night. I called some people that I knew to inform them about my trip problems and was asking for sollutions, when the guy nexed to me offered me I bed to stay in. His sister picked us up from the next busstop and she welcomed me in her house. They had some friends there as well we drank some wine chatted so me and had a real nice time that night. In the end I took a very good nap in a nice bed. Next day they gave me a lift to the trainstation.
This experience filled my imagination. Could I just mess up with my train schedule another time and hope for another adven`ture like this?
