CURRENT MISSION

Missions are for 007's.

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, exploring and nature. The dynamic of meeting new people and having spontaneous interactions, even if it is only for a day is what excites me. I like to provide an environment in which we can share our thoughts, feelings, experiences and inner world.

PHILOSOPHY

Shine light on your shadow

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By participating.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tried surfing from my couch. I failed.

To be more serious: I mainly host. Why? Because when I travel, I like going to hostels. I find the dynamics in hostels super fascinating and have always met very interesting people in hostels. At home, I like the dynamics of getting to know someone and offer him/her a comfortable and safe environment to stay.

Interests

What makes something interesting? It is the passion with which someone shares the stuff they find interesting. So I can be fascinated by anything someone tells me.

I like to cook and try new recipes. Can't promise that I'm very good at it ;-)

I am amazed by the wide variety of cultures humans have been able to produce, so I like travelling in order to explore them.

When at home, I also like watching travel reports on YouTube or watch documentaries about other nations, cultures or historical events.

I like going to a bar, or just hang out at home. When travelling, I enjoy partying as well :D

Lately picked up drawing again, which I really loved as a kid.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like (hard) Rock, 70's and 80's, Soul, Jazz, Hip Hop, Classical music.

As far as books go I used to read a lot of fiction, ranging from Harry Potter and Game of Thrones to Catcher in the Rye to 19th century Russian literature. Nowadays I mainly read non-fiction and/or listen to audiobooks.

I like a lot of movies, both mainstream and more obscure and exotic. Quite a fan of Danish, Swedish and Korean cinema.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time I ordered the last croissant at the bakery shop.

To be honest, I think you can do amazing things every day. But, if it has to be one thing: I have walked 4 different Caminos de Santiago. Personally, no feeling in the world like walking the Camino de Santiago. After, it made me realize how our whole life is a Camino and we never ever stop walking the Camino.
