ABOUT ME

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

I love having guests so be welcome at my place. I have a busy work schedule so I can't make any promises how much time I have for you but I always have enough time for a good dinner and drinks.

What would my best friends say about me? Probably that I am an idiot but with a good heart. Otherwise than that, I don't really know. I can be very different depending on which day you meet me. Sometimes I am loud, wild and outgoing, sometimes I enjoy to be by myself and not care about the world.

I started couchsurfing when I went on a one year trip around the world in 2010. For the first few months I did a lot of couchsurfing and had some of the best experiences of the whole year. Now it is time to give back some of what the community has given me. I also think, having guests while in my daily routine gives me a bit of a break from my day to day life..that should make it more interesting right!? Last but not least I have always felt that I want to show people around my beautiful country.. what better chance than couch surfing?

I would like to add that I need to see that you read my profile for me to approve your request. Therefore you should mention "Bazinga" somewhere in your request. Thanks for understanding.

I am looking forward to meet you soon!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Easy choice. My four month language stay in Montreal Canada and my one year trip around the world are hands down the best experiences of my life. Nothing comes even close. The people I met, the experiences I made. I will remember these times until the day I die.
