Martijn Aanstoot, 28 years already and an open minded person who is always looking for new experiences to grow as a human. I am compassionate and try to do what is right but also like to seatch for the edges in life. I bring enthusiasm and friendship in your home if you are kind enough to let me in. Currently solo travelling through Europe because I wanted to know what it’s like being completely alone and it is very good I tell you. Furthermore have a active lifestyle with a good mix of excercise, gaining knowledge and being social so this alone thing is a real different experience!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am late, yeah, but I am here now. An encounter with an Brazilian woman opened up my interest in meeting people from other cultures. Not that I didnt had it, it just needed a spark to give me that nudge. I want adventure, Holland is too small for me and there is a whole world out there.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love philosophy and history because it helps me to understand the world better. I want to know, discover and learn as much as possible in my life here on earth. Music is very broad, I like the vibe of 60s, 70s and 80s classica but you can also find me vibing to Moderat. Music is feeling and if the feeling is right I am open to any genre and/or sound.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going solo on holiday with no plan at all, just me, trusting on life and see where it gets me. I drive in a yellow volkswagen and have ut tattooed on my leg. No joke. And lot’s of other stuff but hey, let’s talk about that over some beer and wine.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't waste your time being in a situation/place/friendship that doesn't make you happy. There is so much to see/do/enjoy in this world with sooo many people.

And you are always in control of your mind if you train it. A trained mind forms a happy and fulfilling life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Since we have a lot of history and I like history I can show you Utrecht, but also Amsterdam, Nijmegen and Arnhem in the Netherlands. Lived in al those cities and I also worked for a citymarketing agency in Amsterdam. I dislike the masstourism and have a strong opinion about it, want to know the real cool places? I show you!
