Overview
About Me
Hey there stranger! Here is some more info about myself :)
I love to make connections with people, to meet strangers and to share. I believe when I show kindness, that kindness comes back. Armed with that mindset, I will explore the world. See the unseen with a smile on my face :)
I'm energized and assertive, but don't worry, I also have my quiet enjoying moments ;) I love everything about life, exploring, laughing, nature, making connections, animals, playing, dancing, music, and singing (although I don't have a great voice ;). I Aspire to receive everything that life throws at us, and give even more than that.
Furthermore, I'm quite spiritual but also down to earth, which (I have to admit) is a weird combo. I love to wonder what there is more behind life but also try to be realistic. Anyway that also means I'm curious about perspectives, also yours!
Also, I'm quite minimalistic. So I don't need much and I'm happy with little things. I also like to be resourceful with the things we already have, Instead of buying new things. That is also because I like to be sustainable.
Before this journey of hitchhiking to Asia, I was a student. I just graduated from a BSc in Technical medicine and a MSc in Health Psychology & Technology. My mission after my travel will be merging these worlds together, because I believe the body and mind are very much intertwined. But for now, let's explore the world!
I've love to play sports, I've played ice hockey my whole life and can pick up another sport quite easily. I have a little experience in horse riding, sailing, surfing, snowboarding, but I still can learn a lot in these sports.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe in kindness and i believe that exploring new cultures is not about the place, but more about the people, I'm hoping if you could show me around! If not I will be fine as well ;)
Right now I'm hitchhiking around Europe towards Asia. With my little tent and sleeping bag I can sleep anywhere, but I rather do it somewhere safe :).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Well the journey that I'm doing now is my current Life's work: hitchhiking to asia.
One time when I was traveling alone, I didn't want to make selfies of everything. So I put a small sprouting lemon tree in a shoe and traveled with it for 2 weeks. He went all the way to Budapest and even saw the top of a mountain about 2500m high!
- I slept on the streets for 2 days as an experiment
- Hitchhiked through Albania
- Lived a very fun and active student life, including a lot of fun stories
- Went to Tony Robbins: Unleash the Power Within (UPW)
Teach, Learn, Share
I like meditation, mindset, philosophy, and training optimism.
Maybe we could discuss a little but about it someday?
