Hi! I quit my job in advertising and left my rental appartment in February 2022 to persue a lifelong dream of travelling wherever i want to travel to. For a year, or maybe more, or maybe less. We'll see.

*** Current location (updated April 2022): Bolivia ***

I traveled solo before, for 4 months in South-East Asia (yes, the banana pancake circuit everyone does over there). But this trip i'm not travelling alone, but together with my girlfriend Sharon :). Sharon is also Dutch, 28 years old and a HUGE plant lover. Maybe she can take a quick look at some of your dying plants when you host us ;).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While travelling, i want to get to know the locals a bit more. When i started my trip, i didn't think of couchsurfing, but while travelling i met a few people who highly recommended it. After my travels, I plan to host surfers myself (once i have a home of myself).

Interests

- I'm into discovering new music (please share your spotify playlists), as long as it isn't Dutch.
- I get up in the middle of the night to watch Formula 1 races (not just for Max Verstappen, i like the others as well).
- I enjoy cooking (Sharon even more!).
- I like to try as many different beers as i can find.
- I know nothing about wine, but i like to pretend i do.
- An excel sheet a day keeps the anxiety away.
- I used to DJ in bars and for student parties.
- I'm a dog person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quiting up my job and home to travel indefinitely still feels pretty amazing considering I normally like structure in my life ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my travel experiences, help you plan your next trip, cook meals, watch and/or walk your dog, share music. And if you have a DJ set but don't know how it works, i can teach you.
