Hey there! I'm one of the new ones here. Why I'm here you might ask? Because I like to meet people from all over the world and I wanna try something different than Airbnb, B&B or a hotel on my travels. So I'm Dutch and have some Moroccan blood in me, live close to the beach (which I totally love), can make myself understandable in 3 different languages, try to be as open minded ask I can. I like to be in control but I am also convinced life can take you anywhere you least expected it. Maybe see you soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying open minded with my view on the world and other people, by meeting new people, listening to their stories, learning from their experiences and gaining new ones.

Music, Movies, and Books

To start of simple books aren’t really my thing but “Waking up” by Sam Harris has really inspired me.

Movie and music is a different story; it’s hard to figure out where to start cos there is a lot that I like. Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Cigarettes after Sex, Arctic Monkey’s, Machinehead, The Prodigy, Balthazar, Rammstein, Arcade Fire, Radiohead, DJ Shadow and there more to add. The Big Lebowski, The Tripe, The Road, No Country for Old Men, Gran Torino, Alien, Moon, Guardians of the Galaxy, Werk ohne Autor, Beats, Sons of Denmark and many more (as soon as I recall them).
