CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world!

ABOUT ME

Hi there! I was thrown on this world in the early eighties and now finally having the opportunity to explore this great ball of (water, rocks and all but more importantly) fire! I'm very passionate for the well-being of kids that are less well off, therefore at home I work with troubled teenagers and I volunteer at holiday camps for kids from poor families. At night I'm a stargazer. If you're interested, I could tell you something about the stars, planets and constellations you're looking at. The world is beautiful but maybe the universe is even more beautiful...

PHILOSOPHY

To be happy, but also to make sure other people can be happy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Until August 2012 I'm traveling with my girlfriend Rosa. After our travels we would like to invite you to come and stay with us in our lovely apartment in Amsterdam (close to the Vondelpark, perfect for picknicking on sunny summer days...)
