Why I'm on Couchsurfing
One of the reasons I'm a member is because I like to help others where I can. Hosting people gives me satisfaction. Another reason is that I like to meet new people and learn about other cultures.
Music, Movies, and Books
๐ต The music I listen to is very diverse, it can be pop, trance, blues, jazz or even country music. examples of artists I listen to: Trance: Armin van Buuren Pop: Coldplay, Chainsmokers, Train, Counting Crows.... many many more Blues: BB King Jazz: Frank Sinatra Country: Kiefer Sutherland ๐บ Most of the movies I watch are action/thriller/scifi or documentaries

Teach, Learn, Share
- I volunteer as a Dutch language teacher at a shelter for Ukrainian refugees. If you're interested, I can teach you some of the Dutch language! - Do you like pancakes ๐ฅ ? It would be my pleasure to prepare you some delicious oats, cottage cheese pancakes.
What I Can Share With Hosts
- I'm a talkative guy and so I like to have conversations which can be about anything, but also like to listen so not only talk :) - I will be more than happy to assist you in any way I can! - Do you like breakfast pancakes ๐ฅ? I'd be happy to prepare some for you
My Interests
- Cooking is what I like to do, I cook with fresh ingredients every day I also like to invite friends and family from time to time to cook and have dinner together. Will you allow me to cook for you ? - I enjoy swimming and going to the gym every now and then. As a Dutchman it's obvious that I do like cycling as well :) - In 2015 I got infected with the travel virus, I took my first intercontinental flight to a friend in Arizona, US. After a while I wanted more and so I traveled to California where I explored the west coast. - Music is important to me as I don't like silence. So most of the time there's music playing out of the speakers in my house. - Big Formula 1 racing fan๐๐๏ธ, there's no race that I miss not even when I'm abroad! -Photography, I like taking pictures! It's amazing how every photo tells a different story. - Meeting (new) people is something I enjoy, I believe we can learn something from each person we meet.
