CURRENT MISSION

Spending more time with interesting people

ABOUT ME

I am one of the taller Dutch guys: 2 meters!
I like to be more "out there". I have a truly positive way of looking at the world. In stead of being judgemental. I am always open to new angles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a novice to CS. I'm very curious about how registering to this site will change things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None whatsoever! Surprise me with my first experience ;-)

Interests

Sooo many! Some of my passions:
Playing Brazillian Samba (percussion). I set up a band in Utrecht: www.sambasabor.nl. At the moment I'm not playing though ;-(, Skating (friday night skate in Utrecht: u-skateparade.nl), design: moooi.nl, sociocracy: sociocratie.nl/global, siscovering new territories, meeting interesting people!

• design
• cheese
• beer
• modeling
• drinking
• homebrewing

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds from popular to rare. Brazillian music of course: Samba, Samba Reggae, Pagode, Forro... Rare examples: Carlos Guedes, Avishai Cohen, Ayreon

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

gyrocopteraviation.nl
Did that! It's great!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know some about Sociocracy. This is a very interesting model of organising and decision making. I think this community could benefit from the knowledge of sociocracy, for it also contains great solutions on teaching and learning. If you like, we can exchange ideas on this subject...

I used to teach playing samba on intermediate level.

Other hobbies: Making beer, making cheese, and of course: drinking beer and eating cheese ;-)
