Hej, I'm Peter and live in Nijmegen with my wife and two rabbits. I like to travel by long distance trains, preferably sleeper trains. I'm interested in discovering more of Eastern Europe and Scandinavia. Either at home or travelling, I love going to concerts & festivals, to take photos (see https://www.instagram.com/pdbrinkman) to enjoy a drink every now and then. I like cycling, swimming, rowing and the good old walk in a forest.
Interested in Bars
Fluent in German

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Just a bit. Though I've surfed and hosted many friends before joining this great project. I've couchsurfed in Berlin, and I've been on an incredibly lovely couchsurfing trip throughout Sweden! Had a few couchsurfers here in Nijmegen.

I really love European movies. Favourite movies inlcude Trainspotting, Heima, The Graduate, Coma, Control, Adam's Apples, Tillsammans, Fucking Åmål, Det Nya Landet, Jalla!
