About Me

Hello, I am a very shy person. Which makes me quiet and introvert. It normally takes me some time to losen up, . It might also be good to say I do not like to party, dance and or getting drunk.
Instead I would prefer a museum, a good conversation, book, movie in the evening or just a nice hike in the nature or city.

I live in Oisterwijk which is a small town in the Netherlands between cities as Den Bosch, Tilburg and Eindhoven. I am Dutch but also pretend to speak English and Spanish.
One of my goals is to eventually see all the countries in the world...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would gladly offer you my couch.
Obviously I also like to travel myself and during my travels it is always nice to get some information, help or comany from locals or other travellers.
I plan to leave soon for a road trip through Europe.

Interests

I have been playing and watching football my entire life off and on. I you do not like this sport, it is better not to mention it, since I might not be able to stop talking about it...
Another interests is, what a surprise, everything a country has to offer. Sight, nature, culture, food and language most of all.

Music, Movies, and Books

Different types of Music. Slipknot and Slayer are my favourites, but I also like to listen to Classical Music (Beethoven, Bach Mozart etc) en Country/ Americana (Mostly Johnny Cash).

Movies:
Lord of the Rings, Into the Wild, Her, Big Fish, Lilja 4-Ever, Joker, Lion King just few of my all time favourites.
Although not a movie, Game of Thrones is for me the best show ever made...

Books, I read but don't have a favorite one. At the moment I'm reading an interesting book about the Netherlands.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking through South America for 10 months

Teach, Learn, Share

Although it is unlikely you will ever use it, I'm happy to teach you some Dutch.
(Same goes for Spanish up to a certain level).
Same goes for some past travel experiences, I'll give you an honest opinion. I certainly did not like everything or find everything amazing.
