About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being a successful small business owner.

ABOUT ME

I am Ies. I started my own business in development of Games in 2013. I'm on a journey to become the greatest game designer of all time! Ok slightly less ambitious but you get the point. I like having fun. Seriously, have you tried having fun? It's great.

PHILOSOPHY

When in doubt, do it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've ignored a lot of request to be honest. It's mainly because I couldn't find where to change my current living arrangements. I got a lot of requests from people who were expecting me to live in Amsterdam, but I'm not. It's my excuse for having such a horrible reply rate :P

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had quite a few experiences with hosting people, which were all really positive. I've also surfed other peoples couches, but not nearly as much...

Interests

movies, computers, internet, games, art and travelling.

  • arts
  • design
  • movies
  • traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: goodfellas, the godfather, the maltese falcon, the usual suspects.
Music: jamiroquai, the beastie boys, man or astroman, groove armada, flying lotus, ahh lots.
Books: Any Douglas Adams book and Daemon / Freedom by Daniel Suarez.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Iceland comes to mind first. It's such an unreal country with beautiful parts of untouched nature (and I'm not even that much of a nature lover).
I also lived in Japan for half a year which might have had a bigger impact on me than I initially thought it would.
