Hey guys!

My name's Matt; an energetic, organized, open-minded, adaptable, versatile and extravert guy from the Netherlands.
My friends would describe me as a Dutch, diplomatic optimist on speed (without taking the drug), and at work I'm referred to as "Matt the Machine". Other than that; I also have a calm side that enjoys a lazy day in bed, watching series and YouTube videos.

Food:
--------
- Everything/anything (without Coriander. I'll always try it, a million times, but for some reason my tongue finds it 'soapy').
- I can cook! I love to make Italian dishes, and Dutch-Indonesian meals (you should try them, they're unique)!

If you want to know more, just give me a heads up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and meet new people, and get to know their different cultural backgrounds.
It is always good to do something out of your comfort zone, because otherwise a person cannot grow ;)
Think of any cliché imaginable, and that will probably also be one of my answers.
