I'm a friendly guy from Utrecht, working as a freelance photographer. Mainly I shoot portraits and commercial campaigns (www.ramonmosterd.nl, if you're interested).
I would say I'm laidback, more of a listener than a talker. Interested in the lives of others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At the moment I'm on Couchsurfing because my girlfriend and I have very recently split up. Besides the heartbreak, this has left me somewhat homeless, because I gave up my apartment when I moved in with her. I'm looking for a new place in Utrecht, but haven't succeeded yet.

On weekdays I'm staying with friends who have generously welcomed me in their home. But to let them have their weekend for themselves, I'm looking for places in Utrecht to spend the weekend.
Hopefully I can give back in the future when I have my own place again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When travelling in Thailand I rented a motorcycle and drove through quite isolated regions on my own. Once on a mountain it started to rain heavily, creating mudslides through which I had to navigate. I almost slipped of the road, down the mountainside. Still feel the adrenaline.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tough question! In my current situation I'm not overflowing with joy all the time, but I think I can still bring a warm presence to the table.
Also, I guess I could share my knowledge on photography and psychology.
