About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Visit some cities in Spain before I go to France (when it's a little warmer) to look for a job for some weeks. Just to make some money to go to the United States!!
Meanwhile hoping to meet some nice people! :)

ABOUT ME

18 year old. Finished high school and looking for some adventure, some insights and just to get to know myself better. Still tryin to figure out what to do in my life. So I decided to leave my home/easy lifestyle to see some more of the world until I know what drives me, how and more important where I want to live. I have been living a while in my tent until I found a job on a farm (wwoofing) to pass the winter!

PHILOSOPHY

Qui risque rien, n'a rien. Live a life you will remember.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't used the site yet, but I met some people hitch-hiking. Some thing, they invited me to stay at their place and had a wonderfull time together. Amazing how hospitable people can be! :)

Interests

Football, sports in general, books and nature. I also like to walk, a lot! I practice goju ryu karate and run a lot. Nothing better than the feeling after a long run and some stretching :) I like as well to do some beginner-progamming in my free time (with Python). Furthermore, I am really fascinated by human behavior. I've read some books about psychology. And in general, I like to think. About everything, filosofie, maths, solving world problems, anything! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year, I walked a bit of the Camino. From Bazas(France) to Najera(Spain), 450km in 18days! Met some amazing people from all around the world! Saw some beautiful landscapes and learned a lot.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmmmm. I can teach you some Dutch if you like. No, I take that back, I can teach you some Flemish! The 'cooler' version of Dutch! ;) So you'll make an unforgetable impression when you meet a dutch-speaking person! I'm very willing to share my thoughts about life, sports, economie, pretty much everything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A big genuine smile! :D
