About Me

Hey there! My name is Aron, 25 years old and from the Netherlands. I currently work as a journalist at a newspaper in the northern region of the Netherlands. In my spare I love to work on some writing and video projects, drinking alcoholic beverages with friends and hanging out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to learn about other cultures and fun things to do in a local area. Couchsurfing seems an ideal place to get to know local people and discover foreign places.
I also like to to travel alone, but I love meeting new people. CS is just such a good way to combine these two things.

Music, Movies, and Books

To choose from a favorite music, movie or book is so hard! I have a pretty broad taste in music and I listen to everything from Hiphop to Americana. I think I can't choose a favourite band, as this varies almost every month. At the moment I listen a lot to lo-fi/shoegaze rock.

My favourite director is hands down David Lynch. I absolutely love the series Twin Peaks and his movies are also very good. There is no one like him who manages to create such a surreal and haunting setting.

My favourite book is one I've read recently: The Music of Chance by Paul Auster. I also am a huge Harry Potter fan and I've read the books at least fifteen times, if it isn't more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went wildcamping in Sweden and I ended up near a lake where a Moose would take his bath as well. That was pretty awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you Dutch words if you're interested!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, a listening ear and I'm also down to cook for someone!
