Jambo! I'm Niels, a Dutch (but raised in Kenya for 10 years) biochemistry student currently living in Spain. Just like every person here, I'm on a quest to acquire knowledge and understanding by travelling and meeting people with diverse backgrounds and ideas! I know, very cliche! But as Gandhi always used to say: " A cliche is a cliche for a reason, because peeps be peeps and all that jazz".

Joking aside, I can be very serious when engaged in any thought provoking topic. But I value listening above all else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Science and money dont mix well in Spain unfortunately. Nevertheless, a great opportunity to meet new people!

Music, Movies, and Books

Classic/psychedelic rock, jazz, delta blues, funk/soul, indie folk

And any movie that makes you say: "wait, what?"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once read an entire iTunes update agreement when I was 14.

Everything else I accomplish in life will come second to that.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach, Learn, Share. Not sure if that's a question or a statement, but its definitely the answer!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some CRAZZZY Africa stories.

Intellectual conversations (I hope). But especially listen and understand other's stories. No person is ever stagnant in life, problems and contemplation will arise, but nothing a stranger's objectivity cant fix! :D

Really useless science facts as well

I also play guitar, unfortunately. Like every guy ever

Countries I’ve Lived In

Kenya, Netherlands, Spain
