I'm a Dutch guy who likes to meet new people from all over the world, learn about their culture and have interesting conversations. (those you don't want to end!)

After living in Spain for 3 years I decided to start travel the world by foot Starting in Málaga by walking the Camino de Santiago and on my way to India. I'm making this whole travel without any money to experience and show the world you don't need money to be happy and there are still loads of good loving people on this planet. But also to live seperate from the system and experience absolute freedom.
So far it has definitely shown me you're truly able to create your own reality!

Hopefully I'll be able to spread the love and inspire others along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The social aspect is maybe the most important thing for me while travelling, getting to know new interesting people but also every little interaction with all the locals you encounter. Because of this Couchsurfing for me is a great way of sharing experiences, meeting up with local people and seeing all those beautiful varieties of humans!

Interests

I have been working as a chef before and love working with fresh and healthy foods, it's definitely a passion. Especially during this travel it's always a surprise what food I'll have for the day so it's a nice challenge to create a good meal everyday!

I love being in nature what makes the backpacking through all the beautiful landscapes an amazing experience. Just listening to the wind blowing through the trees or waking up in the mornings in my tent with songs from the birds are the simple things I enjoy a lot!

A major interest, or I think you can say a way of life and also one of the main reasons for starting my travel is to really be in the moment, meditate, connect and live from the heart!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved away from Holland to Spain when I was 19 to open a restaurant in Fuengirola.

At the moment I've been travelling on foot for over a year which I think is pretty amazing!

Truly connected to other human beings!
