I love traveling (you wouldn’t have ever expected it, right?). I’m extremely fascinated by human nature. I'm amazed by conversations that can come from people with different experiences and mindsets.

I strongly think that everyone has something to teach. Every time we speak with a person it shapes our thoughts and our lives, and we end up being different and fuller.

Here are some reviews of me:
"One hell of a guy" -New York Times
"Outstanding gentleman" -Washington Post
"My hero" -Superman

Favorite quote:
***Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life.***

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for someone who can take care of my 2 alpacas while I'm salvaging the world.

I love to share my opinions and my stories with other interesting people. I enjoy so much to get to know different cultures and traditions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To travel alone, being totally in the now, forgetting about past and future. Not knowing who and what situation I will encounter next.

Next to that: working on my first own(!) house music track.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can do a personality aka mindreading session on you or fool you with one of my magic tricks.

In the summer you can take a swim in the canal here in front of my door. Or I can take you on my boat and we can have a trip along the canals of Amsterdam.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking a Dutch meal or tell you all you need to know about Amsterdam. Believe me: I'm an expert, since I was born and raised here. ;)

If you are a great movie buff, I can let you browse through my huge dvd and blu-ray collection.
