About Me
ABOUT ME
Friends would say that I'm an easygoing, sporty guy. A good drinking buddy as well ;) I think friends would also describe me as a person you can have an actual conversation with. I try to take life one step at a time, have fun and make the most of life. Since our time is now, right?
PHILOSOPHY
'Een dag niet gelachen is een dag niet geleefd.'
Which is Dutch for:
A day without smiling is a day gone to waste.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I believe couchsurfing is, by a distance, the best thing that the invention of the internet has brought us!
I'm always open to meeting new people. You are welcome to stay on my couch, just send me a message.
I hope to make a trip someday visiting all the people I met through couchsurfing!
Interests
I love discovering new things, preferably new adventurous stuff. So for one thing I love to travel, go scuba diving, go cycling in the mountains, jump from planes, etc.
Of course one can't go bungee jumping every day (why the hell not?! a living has to be earned, alas..) so I make my daily life fun by playing guitar with friends, in the summer I cycle a lot. Otherwise I'm studying Food Technology, which i like to explain as 'making desserts'. My interest in food is also something I like to practice in my own kitchen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
- Scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef!
- I had a magic moment sitting next to the lighthouse of Watson's Bay in Sydney, watching out over the city and the sea. It was the beginning of my big trip through Australia and I remember feeling intensely privileged to be alive.
