About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, use/practise my frensh. Rencontrer des nouvelles personnes, utiliser et pratiquer la langue française.

ABOUT ME

Openminded, always in for joke, want to see other cultures, meet new people.

For hosts:
I will adjust to your ritme as much as possible. I'm not a party kind of guy, so if you want to go out till 6 in the morning, I don't think we will match. Talking with a glass of wine about life and anything other that interests the both of us can take till 6, only if we're both up for it. I like to cook for others, but don't want to push it. I understand not everyone is up for my creative cooking with strange combinations. I like to help a hand with the dishes or anything else to expres that i'm greatfull to be able to use your couch. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to send me a message. I won't bite.

PHILOSOPHY

do not judge someone else. If you'd have the same genes, envirement, skills, parents, ... You'd probably do the exact same thing.

Life is to short to complain about what's going wrong. change it and enjoy it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really like this part, but I'm not that great in explaining my skills. What I can be good at is listening and playing the devil's lawyer. giving a differant perspective. can also help in practising languages. I do write mistakes but I don't care.can talk dutch, frensh and english pretty fluently so always nice to practise.
