About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling and submerging in Latin-America! Enjoying the wonders of the world!

ABOUT ME

We are a couple living together for 4 years here in Amsterdam. She is a teacher, dancer, singer, yogi, fun, smart, talented little lady. I am an outgoing guy, who loves to enjoy life: (playing) music, art, cultures, nature, sports, etc. In my professional life I like to create new, interesting, innovative and meaningful things to make peoples lives better and/or easier.

PHILOSOPHY

What goes around, comes around. Treat others like you would like to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We are used to having friends and family sleeping over all the time. This elaborated a bit with friends bringing friends along, people who we've met during my travels coming to visit me etc. etc. I now decided that this network can be a win-win situation: people can stay with us in a beautiful location in Amsterdam. And we can more easily find people when we are travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have little official CS experience. Many friends and people have stayed in our home, and I have occupied several couches myself! But my girlfriend has been a member of a cs community for a long time. One of my favourite times was when Ben (Australian) who I met in argentina visited me here in Amsterdam. We took a guided tour HE heared about: I learned so much new stuff about this city I didn't know about, which might have triggered me in doing more couchsurfing. Inside infromation is so much fun when visiting new places.
