About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling Andalucia with my girlfriend and hoping to introduce her to CS

ABOUT ME

What about me? I find it hard to describe myself, but I think I'm a very open minded person who loves to be around other people. Also, I'm always interested in meeting other people with different points of view. I'm definitely an optimist and people say they find me smiling all of the time. Well, I don't see anything wrong in that... though I can be serious too.

PHILOSOPHY

"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm participating by meeting other CS'ers for a drink, to surf with them... or just by coincidentally meeting them on the road. When I have settled down somewhere I would be very happy to be hosting people from around the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am currently travelling the overland route from The Netherlands across Asia, following some of the oldest trade routes in the world and meeting the most friendliest, kind and hospitable people I have ever encountered. I started this quest on the 6th of August 2011 and have so far crossed through Europe, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal and am now back in Pakistan again to continue on the Karakoram Highway into China. This is definitely the most amazing and inspiring thing I have ever done!
Oh, and there was this 160 m. high bungee jump in Nepal which was prety insane too. ;-)
