About Me

Outgoing, friendly and caring, love to travel, very fond of reading, and always looking for the cheapest way of seeing the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting pleasant people with an open/broad mind, getting to see the world through the eyes of locals, and having an uncostly manner of moving around the globe (ofcourse!)

Interests

Other cultures, books, psychology, development of children, technology, music, getting together with friends, learning about the world, ...

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: It changes with my mood, but alltime favourites are definitely Rise Against, Blue October, Biffy Clyro, and Blink 182. Nostalgia!

Movies: I could watch kingsman over and over again, just because of Samuel L Jackson. Next to that, I enjoyed watching many of Tim Burton's movies as well as Tarantino's.

Books: A song of ice and fire (although these books are bitches regarding the speed of reading them), the book thief, any Dan Brown books, Into the water, hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, Harry Potter series as well (ofcourse... at 27, is this a guilty pleasure or not?), ...
and ofcourse my psychology-books. I have plenty.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the beauty of the Taj Mahal at sunrise, sat on a boat on the Ganges river watching cremations, dived through coralreefs on the Gili Islands in Indonesia, hiked through the Balinese jungle-ish woods to find a huge waterfall, did some amazing rafting on the wild Ayung river, hiked the Great Wall of China to its highest point, did the 100 steps to the Summer Palace in Beijing, watched the Terracotta Army in Xi'An, had a clear view over Hong Kong, rode the Shinkansen in Japan, watched Mt. Fuji on a clear day, saw a few Geishas and Meikos in Kyoto after waiting for hours, hiked in Sandankyo near Hiroshima, ... This was not 1 amazing thing. Sorry.
