About Me

CURRENT MISSION

not to lose my sanity, except when I want to

ABOUT ME

I have been living in Perth for nearly 3 years now and am loving it. I would love to meet new people, just for drinks or and maybe to go hiking. I am most fun when you put some alcohol in me. In the morning I do not tend to say a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

I hate being bored

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf, I host, I have organised several meetings

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had quite a number of people surfing my couch in Perth, the Hague and before that also in Quito, Ecuador. I have surfed myself a couple of times, and definitely plan to do more.

Interests

I like outdoorsy thingies like hiking and mountainbiking. I am a real exercise junkie; going to the gym, spinning, running, cycling as much as possible. But I also really like to go out dancing, drinking beer and eating good food. And like everybody else in CS: I like traveling.
