Trying to make the world a little better every day - by designing, organising or programming. After studying Design for Interaction in Delft, I founded a startup to help people travel sustainably in Europe (Green Tickets). I got more and more involved with the climate movement and helped organise a trip to the UN Climate Conference in Katowice, Poland in 2018 and sailed from Europe to South America for the climate conference of 2019.
The best thing of sailing from Amsterdam to South America, was to live on a 45 meter ship with 35 others for almost 80 days: we became a family. I love to bring people together on life changing experiences. My own small adventure for the coming year is exploring the US and trying to find a job in the tech sector in New York.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travelling isn't complete without meeting new people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossed the Atlantic Ocean on a sailing ship and reached millions of people with our story. I was one of the four organizers of the Sail to the COP: sailing with 36 young people from Europe to South America to attend the UN Climate Conference. (which we never reached, because it was relocated just before we got there...)
