A good-sleeping, well-mannered, tight-drumming, quiet-sporty, nature-loving, adventure-seeking enthousiastic is how some of my friends call me. But I prefer to just call myself Kilian. It's easier to pronounce in one breath.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From September till February I am making, a trip around the world together with my girlfriend Roos. From Canada to the USA and hopefully eventually somewhere in South-America we will visit old friends, make new friends, explore nature and get soaked in adventures. But you can't have adventures and new friends without new places to stay. Couchsurfing, for the first time ever for us newbies, will be the perfect way to combine the sleeping with adventures and make some friends along the way.

Interests

In Holland I have two favorite things to do, walking through beautiful nature and make music with my band. It's sad that drumming and walking aren't the greatest thing to do at the same time, otherwise I would have never done somthing else than that for the rest of my life.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite artist in the whole world is Sufjan Stevens and if you don't know his music yet I will try to show you why it is so good. The best films in the world are made by Wes Anderson and the best book you will ever read is On The Road by John Kerouac.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once lost a contact lens during a wild concert, but found it back while hundreds of people where jumping into eachother in the moshpit.

Teach, Learn, Share

It depends on who you meet, but I believe that everyone can teach something great to one another. Wether it is an important life lesson or the best pancake recipe you ever tasted.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I do have a good pancake recipe which I can always make for you. And if you don't like pancakes, we can always talk about the good things there are in this world.
