About Me

Solo traveler looking for local coffee company.

Me in a nutshell: I'm a good listener, average cook and a terrible dancer.

Also:
- I hate judging profiles, yet I'm tempting you to read mine
- no dating intentions
- non-smoker
- more of a pub than a club person
- train traveler (I like to see the country in between cities)

Hobbies:
- spinning vinyl
- practising jazz piano (and Bach, but only his 'easy' preludes)
- programming games and making beats with my nephew

How'bout coffee??

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, traveling is all about meeting new people, and CS has proven to be the perfect medium for this.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books/authors: Murakami, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Harlan Coben, Stephen King, Don Winslow and lots of Dutch authors you probably haven't heard of. Always open to recommendations!

Music: Bill Evans, Ozric Tentacles, Tool, Genesis, Tom Petty, Tori Amos, all preferably on vinyl. Drum and bass is still my guilty pleasure (that I don't feel guilty about) and currently I'm discovering classical music. Again: I'm always open to recommendations!

Movies: As Good as it Gets and The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind are two of my favourites.
