CURRENT MISSION

Moving into our new place :)

ABOUT ME

Friendly, open-minded, love to talk with all kinds of people!
Latest trip: India and Nepal in September and October and planning on a trip to Thailand and Laos in the summer to explore more of Asia.
Love to meet new people! I know it's a cliche, but cliches tend to be true. I get a lot of good energy from travelling, people, having a good time/talk and hope to be able to give that kind of energy also.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people when I can and always try to meet up and/or stay with other CS'ers in other countries. Will always try to tell/show surfers something typical Dutch or 'Nijmeegs'. Also I tell a lot of people about CS, hoping even more will join.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Travelled a lot and stayed on couches before I was aware of CS :).
Met quite some people since I became a member of CS, hosted a dozen, been hosted by a few and hope to extend this in every part of the world :).
Only positive experiences so far.

Interests

Culture, people, literature, poetry, music. I like all kinds of things; enjoy going out in the nature just as much as going into town with friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

There's a lot that can touch me. Music: pop, rock, indie, but also salsa and reggaeton.
Books: I read a lot, currently very much into Haruki Murakami, Paul Auster and A.M. Homes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One year of teaching and travelling in South-America (one of the best years of my life)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been around and I learned that one of the most important things is to keep an open mind. I like to learn a lot from people with all kinds of perspectives and like to share my perspective also.
