About Me

Hi!

I'm Jimte and I live in Holland and I find this whole "About Me'' part pretty hard, but I'll give it a go.
I like to travel, meet new people and experience new experiences eventhough I get slightly anxious when I have to undertake new things in life. I like to listen to music and produce my own music. I like to read and to teach. Especially teaching! At the moment I am studying to become an English teacher and one of the most satisfying things about this, is knowing that the students I'm teaching are having fun whilst simultaneously learning the English language.
I like to have a beer now and then and laugh about lame jokes. That's about it. Oh! I am also really easy going. ;)
PS: The things I'm interested in really fluctuate. Sometimes I'm really into movies, other times I love to read etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I need to stay abroad for half a year in 2017. I need to do this (such an obligation) for my Bachelor Degree. I am studying to become an English teacher and I need to stay abroad for half a year to completely master the language. I'm allowed to do whatever I want: Studying, working, volunteering etc. I think Couchsurfing is the ideal option to stay abroad for a while.

Interests

I like to walk my dog and spend time with my friends. Going to the gym has become a hobby of mine and I sometimes like to listen to lectures of people online; Alan wats, Terence Mckenna. I enjoy playing my guitar and singing from time to time. Not to mention visiting other countries and going to music concerts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tripping over at high speed when I was skiing, because I suddenly found myself off piste, and after a tumble or 50, finding myself sitting in the snow, happily realizing that I am extremely good at falling.
