CURRENT MISSION

mastering Chinese

ABOUT ME

In 2010 I quit my boring office job in the Netherlands and I moved to China. I worked in Yangshuo for over 1 year as an English teacher. After that I cycled through the south west of China from Yangshuo all the way to Chengdu, 2400km in 8 weeks. Now I'm studying Chinese in Chengdu and teach a bit of English to make a living.

PHILOSOPHY

Dream of what you want, but enjoy what you have...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far only met really great people during surfing, hosting or meetings. Though the best experience was a snowboard holiday with 30 couch surfers in the Swiss Alps for a week, met some crazy people there!

兴趣

I love to play tennis, do some snowboarding in the winter and I'm interested in any other sport.
Cooking is a big hobby, but I also enjoy nice food with a good glass of wine with friends.

音乐、电影和书籍

I like to listen to easy listening like: Gavin DeGraw, Jack Johnson, James Morrison, Jason Mraz, John Legend, John Mayer, Pete Murray, Stevie Ann, The Script

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

There're so many things, but the best is probably working as a cook on a fishing boat in Australia. At that time I was only 19 years old and had never cooked before. Once in a lifetime experience!!

And cycling through China was also pretty amazing.

教，学，和分享

I'm pretty good in tennis, but there are not many tennis courts around here in China unfortunately!
