Hey there, thanks for stopping by my profile! I'm Jip, a guy from Amsterdam who loves food and tech.

🍳 I've spent years cooking up a storm in kitchens, and now I'm diving into the world of IT.

🧳 Traveling and meeting new people is what makes life great for me.

❤️ I'm passionate about exploring our beautiful planet.

🛏️ If you ever need a host or just want to grab a coffee or a beer, don't hesitate to reach out. Let's chat! 🍻

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I truly believe that there's no better way to explore a new place than by connecting with a local. And that's why I think Couchsurfing is such an awesome way to immerse yourself in a new culture and city.

Also, I'm a firm believer in lending a helping hand whenever we can. That's why I love offering a couch or bed to travelers in need. It's a small gesture, but it can make a big difference in someone's journey.

And, let's not forget how exciting it is to meet people from all over the world and learn about their unique cultures. I always find it so fascinating and eye-opening..

Interests

I'm into so many things! From whipping up delicious meals to creating art, from tinkering with tech to exploring the great outdoors - there's just so much to discover and enjoy :)q

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a bit confused about my taste in music. According to Spotify, I'm into "Happy House". Does that even make sense? 😅

Moving on, I absolutely love sci-fi movies like Interstellar! But, I also find documentaries quite interesting, like Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey.

When it comes to books, I tend to gravitate towards the same genres as my movie preferences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Get ready to buckle up because there's a whole lot more excitement to come!

Teach, Learn, Share

Absolutely! I have a comfy couch that can be turned into a bed just for you, and my apartment is all yours during your stay. I'd also love to give you a tour of Amsterdam and share some interesting facts about this beautiful city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share some of my cooking skills with you, or we can just have a good chat about anything that interests you.

I'm pretty open-minded and I enjoy discussing a wide range of topics, from politics to the philosophical question of whether life is just a simulation. To be honest, I don't have all the answers, but I'm always happy to explore new ideas and perspectives. So, what do you feel like talking about?
