Overview
About Me
Ohh, you just have to look at my references to know about me. I am a laid back and open minded person, but who on Couchsurfing isn't..?
Apart from that enjoying stuff like football, yoga and meditation. Do enjoy beer and wine, occasionally if the feeling is right I let body move to music, other times stay home with popcorn, tea and watermelon.
Like meeting people to interact and connect behind layers of being cool or just doing thinks to keep mind busy (even if that can be pretty nice too). But hey, no pressure, it's all relaxed.
I like people who are generous, interesting, curious and understanding, but why not with radical views on the world.
You can be spiritual or trivial, lazy or exhausting, bright or nuts (or be both) as long as there is a warm and friendly personality behind it. And I do my best to be just that.
PHILOSOPHY
To know enough to know that I don't know anything
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Fully enjoying getting to know new people and their home cities/villages in countries that are new to me and enjoy when people come over to my place, even though I have so far only been a "co-host".
Would be nice to host a bit, but can already say that a lot of times might not be the right time because of too many other plans like travelling and/or work.. But be spontaneous! Last minute request are usually the best since I hate making plans and also not sure what I will do in weeks to come. And when you do write, tell me bit about yourself and why u would like me to host you.
Interests
Learning and seeing new things, travelling in every part of the world - preferably overland by car, but without is also okey.... I guess.
