Overview
About Me
Hi! So I'm Hans, a very open and straightforward guy from the Netherlands. Grew up in the North and started uni when I was 18, in the city of Delft - close to Rotterdam. Had a very awesome and long studenthood - pretty much the best time of my life so far.
After graduation in Architecture, a couple years ago, the real quest began. What to do with life... I can't say I've written stuff out into detail, but what I did do was decide that Architecture was not the thing for me as a professional. Now I'm enjoying a great job in marketing/IT.
What the future holds, well... at least there should be lots and lots of travelling and also living abroad, widen my perspectives further and hopefully find out bits of what live is all about. And somehow, not sure how yet, make the world a better place.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Travelling, for me, is all about getting to know the heart of a place you visit. Screamy hostels can be a lot of fun, a hotel is nice and comfy - but it is nothing like connecting with locals. Only then, I am sure, can you get the real feel of a country and city, hearing about peoples perspectives and opinions.
Interests
My three major things to live for are...
Music - very critical on that but at the same time only few genres are outside of my scope. Favourite band: the Foo Fighters.
Cooking - experimenting with some Asian cooking (which I'm never ever gonna try for an Asian local) but specialty is southern-European food, mainly Italian. And ofcource Dutch Pancakes, my couch-surfing gift on special request!
Traveling - soooo many places to see and go to, I kinda barely scratched the surface. Right now, it's just (as long as possible) holidays, but I certainly plan on traveling about longer periodes of time too.
