Hi there!

My name is Joost Reus and I am 30 years old. Just a few months ago I came home from a cycling trip of two years in which I cycled more than 25.000 km. Currently I am enjoying my home country.

I see myself as a relax, open-minded, friendly person who cares more about other beings than myself. I like to challenge myself, I love movies and I get super enthusiastic by travelling and meeting other people. Oh, and if you want to challenge me in a game of chess, I am in!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great opportunity to meet locals. This is the perfect way to dive into new cultures, learn about foreign customs and making new friends all over the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Basically I love all kind of music. But if I really have to make a choice it would be a rock hit from the 70s, 80s or 90s. 🎼

Wake me up with Sweet Home Alabama and put me asleep with Piano Man! 🎵

I really enjoyed reading Yuval Noah Harari. I am open for more book suggestions! 📚

Huge movie lover. Favourite directors are Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarantino. 👌

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped out of an airplane by night with 50 kilo gear. 😅

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am honest and reliable. That is one of my most valuable characteristics.

Oh, and respect I found very important. Show each other respect, no matter the origin, colour or religion.
