Hi everyone, my name is Valentijn.
I'm 24 years old, recently graduated and about to start my career but before that happens, I want to travel a bit and connect with people from different cultures. Why? because one thing that travelling and living abroad has made me realize is that I get a certain energy from it that I don't easily get staying put in the same environment I have grown up in.
Although my interests are various, I especially love being outdoors, going new places, experiencing different cultures and food. I love food :) Besides that I enjoy chitchatting as well as talking about the meaning of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I like techno and jazz and I have a particular interest for Korean movies and books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An interesting fact about me has to be that I used to do ski racing. Until university I was part of the Dutch National Alpine Ski Team and travelled the world to do ski races. My biggest achievement has been becoming Junior World Champion when I was 17. Although I quit and pursued different things, I still enjoy skiing a lot and teaching others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Everyone has their own story which makes up for their perspective of life and so do I. What I'd like to share is mine and listen to yours :)
