ABOUT ME

At the moment I'm chasing my dream and studying for my commercial pilot license in the Netherlands.

I graduated from university and although I've already done some traveling I want to know everything about the world. I love to make fun with other people and share our planet.

In the summer of 2009 I made a road trip from San Francisco to Miami with a friend of mine and it was SO great!

In 2011 I was in Las Vegas for two weeks, definitely an amazing city! Again rented a car and drove to LA and the Grand Canyon.

In Januari 2012 I went to Singapore for a couple of days and Australia for 6 weeks. I rented a car and drove about 10.000km starting from Melbourne to Adelaide to Uluru to Townsville and all the way to Sydney.

Highlights:
- Outback (Nothing but Road trains)
- Airlie Beach, a 3-day sail trip on the ocean -> diving and snorkeling
- Fraser Islands, a 3-day trip with 4WD cars in the middle of Dingo land
- Sydney

Sounds good? It was amazing!

At the end of 2012 I went to the wonderful country of Thailand for a 3-week trip from Bangkok to Koh Phangan (Full Moon Party) to the Phi Phi Islands for some wonderful shark diving.

In 2013 I made a trip to Japan and travelled from Osaka to Tokyo and climbed Mt Fuji. Afterwards I went to South Korea and visited Seoul.

I live near The Hague, which is about 50km from Amsterdam and I love to go out with other Couchsurfers.

PHILOSOPHY

See the world, meet new people and make friends worldwide.
