ABOUT ME
I don't believe there is a meaning to life, as evolution brought us here, and the fact that I am thinking with my mind at the place I am right now is quite random actually, so I decided to dedicate my purposeless existence to the exploration of the planet that allowed for our birth and human evolution and to the understanding of the complex social world that was created along the story. So I am impatient to make my mind gather all those fragments that are places and people and their stories, and travelling always makes me feel like I am truly alive and I have the right to walk on this earth.
Society has become absolutely disgusting in many ways, and, therefore, travelling often seems like the only way of connecting with people to me..
So far this has worked out relatively well for me, I have had a glimpse or an intense look at many different places and I could spend weeks telling all my stories.. So I hope to meet you, and hear yours!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I live in The Hague, in an apartment with my four, sometimes five friends. There's three bedrooms that we share with six/seven people, but if you are in need of a place, we can probably arrange something. We have two big, comfy couches and also many camping mattresses. My friends are international, so we talk English at home. There;s a lot of music, regular dirt and occasional craziness. We live in a nice area with many small stores and multicultural food places. It's walking distance from train station Holland Spoor. I moved to The Hague 4 months ago, and I still enjoy walking around its many corners or going to the dune / forest landscape at the beach, so perhaps I can accompany you, if I don't have to work.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have surfed a few times, but mostly I don't manage because I am not good at planning and I travel by hitchhiking which creates a lot of uncertainty about space and time.. Really enjoyed hosting people, some ended up staying for weeks, and some I just found on the street. Always happy to get an insight into another person's mind/life..
