Hi! I am from the Netherlands and I work as a software engineer. Because I can work remotely, I have the opportunity to travel a big part of the year. I have done several multiple month trips this way, to South America, South East Asia, the Balkans and Turkey. Usually I travel quite slowly, I take my time to get to know a place, I like to meet local people and get to know the local culture, but I also enjoy going to museums and going to local restaurants and cafes. Besides that I enjoy other things such as hiking, playing guitar, cooking, outdoor sports, reading (about psychology, spirituality, history, economics, geopolitics and many other topics) and programming (my career is also my hobby). I have done multiple trips of at least half a year, to Asia, South America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. My favorite way of traveling is by motorbike. I like to plan as little as possible to leave room for spontaneous ideas and random encounters. In the future I want to buy my own motorbike or campervan and work online while traveling with it. For me that's the ultimate freedom.

Lo que puedo ofrecer a los hosts
I don't have my own place right now, but one day I hope to return the favor of hosting. I have many good experiences from being a surfer and one day I want to give back.
