ABOUT ME

Travelled the world after high school for 10 months, studied for 3 years in Groningen (International Business) and studied at Bilkent University in Ankara (the Erasmus programme), Turkey, for half a year. In the first half year of 2010 I drove a 4x4 car with 2 friends from Holland to Beijing, China, and back. Now doing my master-degree of 'Finance' at Erasmus University in Rotterdam.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosted many, and last half a year I surfed a lot as well, during my half-a-year-roadtrip. The couchsurfing-project really upgraded my trip, we met a lot of awesome people who showed us around in their cities, or just had a good time with us.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed a lot in Russia, also in Uzbekistan, Syria, Macedonia, Ukraine.. These countries turned out to be perfect for couchsurfing, as any country in the world probably is..

Interests

my interest goes out to lots of things. Love to do all sorts of sports and think its good to meet new people with different backgrounds.
