About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living in Amsterdam after a 6 months cycling trip to the east of Turkey. Unfortunately didn't make it to Singapore due to the current situation in the world (COVID-19).

ABOUT ME

Down to earth kind of person, with a very dry form of humor (don't worry, I will only develop this humor when I know you well enough). Lived in a couple of different countries (Malaysia/ China/ Ireland & Brazil, besides my home country the Netherlands) so I tend to think I picked up a bit of a sense for cultures and people from different backgrounds.

Very open to trying new things my interest to trying out new things seems so far still insatiable. My latest endeavour to cycle half the world fits this picture. Hopefully one day I am able to rest a bit longer in one place. Until then I hope to bring some cool stories with me to your place!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Simply because I have tried it out and found there were so many nice people involved in it. Made some really nice friends from all over the world and it really changed my life!

Meeting awesome people, generally more interested in the people I meet in new places than the sights itself - although this often goes hand in hand!
