CURRENT MISSION

You know, like Caine in Kung Fu: walk from place to place, meet people, get into adventures.

ABOUT ME

Enthousiasm is my middle name.

PHILOSOPHY

How little things can make a big difference

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Anyone can contact me for coffee any time! I would love to share inside information on Amsterdam as the most touristy places are defenitely not the best! However, I only reply to requests that are personalized: please read my profile and send a request if you feel that we might have something to share!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good! I had the pleasure to meet nice people and it altways turned out great and surprising!

Music, Movies, and Books

Bourne Identity trilogy, Prison Break and movies like Shawshank Redemption. But also Friends, Have I Got News For You, and my Disney's favorite: Emperor Kuzco.
Concerning books, I'm rather into Dutch literature. I love books in which the bad guy has also his sympathetic sides and vice versa.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing a Sumatran vulcano, visiting families in South African townships, spotting a baby rhino, visiting a Syrian souk, descending the Rotterdam Euromast, celebrating Saint Patrick's in Paris (?), climbing the Milano cathedral, sleeping under French skies, cycling on Mallorca, eating syrup waffles with Hungarian train workers, hiking on the Olympic penninsula, spotting a hawk in NYC, visiting Starbucks around the world... to be continued.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm into research and child psychology! I know nice cycling routes around the Netherlands as well :-)
