About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After a bad experience in Nepal I want to do something new and unexpected.

ABOUT ME

I am a music teacher and pianist with a lot of different interests.
This year is the most unexpected one ever! Last April (2007) I left my secure life in Holland and moved to Kathmandu for a new job at the 'international school'.
It happend to be a fake school and after a lot of lies we left Nepal, dissapointed.
After a few weeks we realised how blessed we were; free to go where and whenever we want! Nevertheless, we're happy travellers looking for new experiences, ready to absorbe!

PHILOSOPHY

Everyday is a step forward! I have a possitive attitude, open minded and I'm eager to learn through and with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined the club.....but as I see it right now, coughsurfing is a great new 'movement' in the so called 'travellers world'. It gives us the oppurtunity to build up a worldwide circle of traveller-friends.

Interests

- Classical music (Bach, Chopin, Schubert.....)
- Jazz Music
- Literature
- Food (I really love to cook!)

  • literature
  • dining
  • cooking
  • recipes
  • clubbing
  • music
  • classical music
  • jazz
  • teaching

Music, Movies, and Books

- Bach (best composer ever!)
- Jazz (too much to list)
- History books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've done is getting married, quit my job and started a new life, full of oppurtunities!

Teach, Learn, Share

Since i'm a (music) teacher (off duty) I'm eager to learn about other forms of music and cultural ways of expression. (Of course this is reciprocal)....
And I forget to mention my love for cooking, maybe we can exchange some recipes. Or even better, lets cook!
