I am bit of a treehugger; I work in nature conservation, eat vegetarian and (mainly) organic food and like to spend time in nature. I got a broad interest but are particularly interested in history, geopolitics, art and philosophy. I travelled quite a lot trough Europe, and only had positive experiences with Couchsurfing so far. Right now I am mainly hosting, so if you want to stay in the old centre of Vlissingen with sea view; send me a request and hopefully we'll meet soon!
