Hey! I'm a broadly interested person, and would like to extend this broadness by means of meeting nice people :). Interests range from artistic/technical experiments (learning the auto-didactic way, and expressing through creating stuff) to travelling solo (maximum chances to meet other people). Also, plants are cool. Books as well. Music too (especially classical music, gives me goosebumps). I like sports, to empty the mind and challenge the body. I have a busy mind so my body is in good shape :p.

I have hosted some people on BeWelcome: https://www.bewelcome.org/members/kloppertje

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet nice people, because in the end the interactions that we have define our self.

Interests

Broadly interested. I have many hobby projects, but finish pretty much none of them. It's about the journey ;). I like to make creative / artsy things using technology; the more useless the better. At some point, when I have found enough courage, I will make a living this way.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh, where to start. Books (just a few that pop up in a few seconds): the little prince, the order of time, factfulness, the unbearable lightness of being, the prophet, childhoods end, brave new world, do androids dream of electric sheep, 10 minutes 38 seconds in this strange world

Movies: interstellar, the perks of being a wallflower, Mary and Max, Mad Max

Music (don't get me started!): from Rammstein (went to a concert last year) to Rachmaninoff (piano concerto 2 still gives me goosebumps). Leonard Cohen, early electronic (Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk, Vangelis). Quite much into classical music, love visiting concerts. Best way into the soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flying a glider plane. Sleeping alone on top of a mountain, illegally (technically it was more trying to sleep). Solo travelling the world after years of anxiety.

Teach, Learn, Share

Electronics, coding, how to be patient, cool books (I like to read), mental health

What I Can Share with Hosts
