Hi everybody/ hola todo el mundo

Soy Klaas, un estudiante de Amsterdam, viviendo en Granada ahora mismo. No soy completamenta suelto en castellano pero hablo bastante y estoy capaz comunicar más o menós con fluidez. Tengo ganas de visitar algunas otras lugares en este país maravilloso. espero que aquí haya gente bondosa que puede ayudarme con ese.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To meet new people, to hear cool stories, to share and care, to experience new places all over our beautiful world with help from the people who know most about them, to see a different side of the culture. Furthermore it might help me while learning Spanish.

Intereses

Traveling (as the most people here I guess), sporting (currently kickboxing), learning about all sort of subjects, soulfood, meeting new people, developing myself, gain new experiences, public speaking. the culture in the way the people dress, eat and behave in normal life.

Me flipa viajar (claramente), practicar deporte, cocinar (estaba trabjando como cocinero en los países bajos). Ahoro acabo de aprender bachata y salsa, que me alegran muchísimo también.

Música, películas y libros

favourite books

Jan Montyn (a dutch biography about a guy fighting for the germans in WWII, it's a moving story that will put you life in perspective. translated as a 'a lamb of slaughter. I highly recommend it.)Right now I'm into Aldous Huxley a lot.

favourite movies

hard question, i've seen so many good ones. I prefer the ones that will leave you shocked in the end through some kind of cool twist like Fight Club or Memento I enjoy movies like Azuloscurocasinegro, Mar Adentro and Moonrise kingdom a lot aswell.

I like almost all music from rock to reggeaton, from psytrance to jazz.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

philosophies: Never compromize on your own principles. live is better when shared.

teach
some languages, I know an enormous amount of pretty useless but nevertheless intersting facts. I can teach cooking techniques and easy, healthy and delicious recipies. I'm very passioned about social sciences and different ways to organize sociecties.

learn
Learn about different cultures, how to make some local dishes, Spanish, something that you know a lot about (I love learning, the feeling when you can do something you were not able to de before is incredible), basically anything.

Share
