I got my bachelors as a musical documentary film maker a couple of years ago, and in between then and now I've traveled through Australia to make a film (the result is called Homesickless and available on Youtube), I traveled and lived abroad for some time and am currently living in Amsterdam. I work in a smartshop (I like to call it space-providing), I write and play music and I try to get some film gigs on the side. I love to jam, to laugh, I love a good conversation, I love to dress up silly, I love to dance and I love to explore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, helping others out and traveling. Couchsurfing is the perfect combination of those things. I'm not here for free beds and showers, I'm here to make friends. I have loved every single of my CS experiences, both hosting and surfing! My current living situation makes it very inconvenient to host and the absolute overload of requests I got when I first moved to Amsterdam that got me having to turn down about 50 people every day, so I just set my profile to 'not hosting' for a while. There's a time and place for everything and I guess now is my time to do some surfin'!

Music, Movies, and Books

I appreciate lots of different kinds of music like funk, highlife, dreamy stuff, spacey electronics, folk, rock, anything with horns, singer-songwriters, you name it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch hiked from the Netherlands to Portugal and From Sydney to Melbourne (Australia), both with the same friend. Good adventures!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook some pretty good (vegetarian/vegan) meals, I play the trumpet and some other instruments, my English is good (so is my Dutch, obviously), I can hang a teaspoon on my nose and I know pretty much all there is to know about magic truffels. All of those things are teachable, unless you don't have a trumpet or a good nose for spoon-hanging.
