I'm Lucas, an outgoing and open minded guy living in Amsterdam.

Für Deutsche leute: Ich verstehe fast alles in Deutsch, und spreche das auch ein bisschen. Ich möchte das gerne üben :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's the best and most adventurous way to meet new people and discover new parts of the world!

Interests

I have a very wide range of things that interest me, which have made it quite difficult for me to find a field of study which really appealed to me.
I like dogs, discovering new music and curated playlists, languages, thrift shopping, coffee, plants, laughing, food, hospitality, pretending to be in music videos and so many other things.

I’m an outgoing person who loves to go out to a bar with friends, to a party or club and meet new people. I also really love practicing new languages. Whenever I'm in a foreign country, I always try to speak as much of their language as possible.

My opinion is that almost everything is interesting to do, learn, see, experience or talk about, if you're doing it with the right people or with an open minded view at the world. And that's what I try to do :)

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite bands of all time are The Midnight and M83, but my taste in music is really eclectic and diverse. Whenever I really need to concentrate and focus, I tend to listen to either ambient soundscapes or hypnotic techno. While biking through Amsterdam, it's more generic pop and indie music etc etc. Take a look at my last.fm profile if you wanna know more! www.last.fm/user/lucas2604

Music is an important part in my life, in every aspect: for every emotion or feeling, I listen to different kinds of music and it brings me joy, comforts me, cheers me up, helps me heal when I feel sad, pumps me up for a night if going out and accompanies me while commuting. The biggest compliment I ever got from someone was at a festival when I was dancing to really amazing music. He told me: "I've never seen somebody who can enjoy music so intensely and radiate so much happiness from it as you do".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the Taj Mahal in Agra, India was one of the highlights of my travels thus far. Also, Fusion Festival in Germany is probably what paradise looks like :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm naturally a caring and open minded person, and with that mentality I hope to connect with other people. Also, I know how to have a good time.
