I am a 20-year-old student, born in Amsterdam and now living in 's-Hertogenbosch. I would describe my self as: helpful, social and open-minded. My occupation exist out of searching for art and antiques, my sister makes beers and I am the sales manager there. I am an Environmental science student at HAS Applied Science University, this means I am interested in any form of sustainable living. I love permaculture, Jazz music, windsurfing, hitchhiking, reading, drawing, selling antiques and art and singing. I am going to France to work as a bartender for a month and after I am just going to hitchhike through France. I hope you would like to drink a beer with me (my treat) and host me? I'd love to hear from you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Last two years I have hitchhiked very much and found out how much I like to talk with strangers. The people who took me for a ride where always very interesting and nice to me. I look at Couchsurfing as a kind of hitchhiking and I want to find out if it is just as nice!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a soprano for 10 years at a choir. We were invited to come over to sing for pope Benedictus the 14th and I had a solo with the song Miserere mei by Allegri. Next to me, there was a Brazilian choir of girls that seemed to have never seen a blond young boy and I became famous within this choir.
