My name is Jippe
I'm not much of a planner. If you request to stay far in advance, I might be slow to reply.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a great way to meet interesting people, to explore a new country, and to expose yourself to different cultures and ways of living.

Intereses

Into sports, I've done a lot of gymnastics but nowadays I mostly surf and go on bike trips. Love the outdoors. I also love history and international politics, I just finished my Master's degree in International Relations. And of course exploring and learning from people and experiences.

Música, películas y libros

From the ruins of empire, Pankaj Mishra. Growing out of apartheid, Mark Mathabane. 1984, George Orwell. I love psychedelic music, downtempo techno, reggae and indie- and classic rock.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Hitchhiking in Russia. I cycled 8000 km from The Netherlands to Iran!!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Love to learn new things, having conversations about history, politics and cultures. I like to learn to speak, or just learn about new languages. I can potentially help with that as well.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can tell you all you ever wanted to know about the Netherlands, share my own travelling experiences, help out around the house, maybe cooking...
