About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find the truth about greener grass and such relative things

ABOUT ME

Jobless, no place to live, no money.... Life is good :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Know people enough to find out who I really am. Yeah I know! The opposite of what Lao Tseu said.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before couch surfing existed as such, I travelled through south pacific, Island hoping, and only once or twice I needed to camp, as people I've never met before kept offering me a place to sleep. That's what it is all about, believing in human beings. And then I just discovered someone had that idea to do it online, genius!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best thing that ever happened to me: my two kids. I've sailed the pacific, back-packed across Europe, flew all over the world, etc. but that is nothing compared to the joy kids can bring you (although taking a break for a road trip is welcome everyonce in a while).
