About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Use to be the surfer, now i have a couch;)

ABOUT ME

I live in Amsterdam because it is one of the most international places in the world.
There is always something interesting to do and it is always close by because it is a very small city.
I am out going and like to enjoy, having dinner at home, bbq in the park or going out in the town for a drink or dance..
Every day i enjoy the city and what it brings:)

PHILOSOPHY

First i went to explore and learn about the world, now i have a steady base with a house and a job and will make in the coming years my plan to see more of this great planet:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled for a while, mostly in Europe and Asia.
Experiencing other cultures and meeting people from all over the world is the most amazing thing for me.
The most impressive man made things i have seen are: The Soldiers Trail on mount Hua (China) (This is closed for the public, amazing!) http://youtu.be/rxGvW0hQdHA http://youtu.be/wN6lG3ktRtl ,The Forbidden City Beijing, Angkor Wat, The Colosseum and the Dutch Delta Works.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am willing to share freedom, hospitality, stories and lessons i had in my life. For me the biggest lesson was how to handle money, i had to see the "value" of it and what it does to people, including myself..
Money? dont borrow it and dont get greedy! :)
