ABOUT ME

/>I don't go to cinema/movies/theater at all. Let's have a walk, play a game, or I read a book.I like high volume (dub, drum & bass or dutch rap).I like different board games like 'Settlers of Catan' and card games like 'Machiavelli'. Allways in for Texas Hold'Em Poker.I never go home by taxi, I rather walk, cycle, or hike.I prefer THC to alcohol.I am 27 and I don't have a driving license.I donate to Greenpeace.I appreciate girls without or minimal make-up, less is more!I like baking (pan)cakes.As a student, I never had an agenda. Since I work full time, I keep one to plan my weekends. Love the weekend!

PHILOSOPHY

*come as you are
*every friend once was a stranger
*live and let live

*almost makes the difference
*save the world, kill yourself
*don't eat yellow snow
*don't hate the player, hate the game

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to participate by offering the core service of this community, a couch :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In the past I hosted a lot of friends and their friends, but not via the CS medium. I heard about CS and felt immediatly I had to join. I'm very enthousiastic to host my first guest(s) in Antwerp! So far so good. Surfed a couple of times while hitchhiking through Europe & Russia.
