CURRENT MISSION

I am a traveller, I go around the globe. At the moment working in my hometown.So less travelling but more opportunities to host people !

ABOUT ME

Hello there,

My name is Ruben. Im 33 years old. Im a social guy who likes to travel ! My favorite way off travelling is hitchhiking ! On average base I hitchhike every week. Mostly during the weekend. Music is one of my biggest passions besides travelling. In september 2017 I released my first album named Zin voor Zin. It is a hiphop/singer songwriter type of album wich is best to listen to when you are moving( by car or by train). Check it out here : http://sensehiphop.nl/muziek/. I like to talk about philosophical things and to meet new people and explore other cultures ! And to try new kinds of food and drinks !

PHILOSOPHY

Its not what you find in this life is who you seek ! Don't judge a book by his cover ! There is always more under the surface !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My way off participating would be to host as many people ass I can ! Not all in once off course cause I only have room from 1 person but I like to be involved with people from other countries and cultures. It makes my world bigger !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One time with my sister in Canada on Vancouver Island. Very cool guy ! And also 2 times when I was hichhiking in scandinavia with a friend. But al these times was couchsurfing without using this website but it was still couchsurfing right ?

Interests

I love sports. To watch it and to play it.Soccer is my favorite . Played table tennis quite long. Also a race bike fan! Movies with a good storyline are my favorite ! Hitchhiking is my crazy hobby! I like to share my stories.

The most amazing thing I experienced was winning a song contest ! I performed with a band in front of 1500 people and most off them went crazy ! This is the link if you wanne see it !
