CURRENT MISSION

Full time musician trying to make life awesome without a day job.

ABOUT ME

I'm a open guy, like to go out and enjoy great music. I study at the Academy of Popculture and that's where my passion is. I sing and play piano/melodica. I live with two of my best friends in an appartment in Groningen. I'm a guy who has humour and enjoys it when somebody else has a great sense of humour.

PHILOSOPHY

Kijken wat er gebeurt. If you translate that it's: see what happens.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went for a month to the US and stayed only at two places because one hosted 14 days and the other 10 days. Later I stayed at two places in Japan. Both awesome experiences.

Interests

I almost spend all my time on making music, playing piano and singing. I play in the band The Given Horse and we play on the streets a lot. Next to that spending time with friends, go party and enjoy festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a roadtrip with friends to Sziget Festival in Hungary, that was great. With my band I went travelling through the US and try to live of our music by playing on the streets, what an experience! Also I've been to Japan and Greece with the band, touring!
