Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Recently wrote my first book and got it published! It aims to help the millennial shape their future.
ABOUT ME
I'm a straight forward kind of guy. I love to do new and challenging things. That no one will tell me what to do ;-)
Must be the fact that I own my own business and just love working on seemingly impossible projects.
PHILOSOPHY
I live life to experience as much, and as consciously, as I can.
This means that I try and stand still from time to time to enjoy the view most people call life :-)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love to cook and I'm pretty good at it. So if you would be so kind as to let me sleep on your couch I will make dinner! Apparently my authentic Dutch pancakes are the bomb :)
So far everyone I've cooked for abroad likes my cooking, so I hope you will too!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far I have stayed with people in Canada, USA, Japan, South Korea, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany and Dubai. It's been great so far and I really love getting to know new people and cultures this way!
The moment I get back to the Netherlands I'll make sure my couch is ready to be surfed on.
Interests
I love to dance. I've been dancing latin american ballroom for more then a decade now. So give me some music, preferably some people, and let's dance!
If you've never danced any partner dances before I can give you a taste of the good life if you would like to?

Music, Movies, and Books
At the moment I read all kinds of books, watch all kinds of films and listen to all kinds of music.
All because I want to know what being open really means. So far I've figured out that I must let go of all the things I thought that were and assumptions I had on life.. Because only without assumption and a clear mind can anyone be really open.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The moment I saw the sun come up over Mount Everest the 1st of january 2010. And every moment I experience flow on a dancefloor is amazing!
Also... My motorcycle from Utrecht (NL) to Barcelona (SP) and back. It broke my body, but it was beautiful!!
