Hey there! I just got home from an 8 month cycling trip, from my hometown in netherlands to Shanghai! I'm settling back in and ready to welcome fellow travellers into my humble home:)

During all my travels i have been lucky enough to receive countless acts of kindness and I've met the most wonderful people. The world is so small and it is so easy to make it a great and friendly place for the people we cross paths with, so i say, let's focus on that!
I've got so many favors to return and I'm happy to share my home/story/ city with you and im curious about yours!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

On a holiday in Egypt I met a couple who told me about couchsurfing, I got enthousiastic and I decided to try it for my next holiday in Norway! After that i had some more cool expierences as a surfer and host. Now i cannot think of a more interesting way of traveling:))

兴趣

I love cycling (especially travelling by bicycle), running and hiking. At home i play piano, spend a lot of time with my friends, go running, love cooking (and eating:)) When I have the time and can find the peace of mind I can enjoy a good book. I can be a little restless though so that doesn't happen often:) There isn't a day that goes by without music in my life. Depending on my mood i can enjoy pretty much anything. Favourite song must be mother of pearl by roxy music. Oh, and I'm usually up for a nice party:)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Cycling from Perth to sydney via adelaide, great ocean road and melbourne. 4920 km of hard work, burning sun, pouring rain, kangaroos, snakes, remoteness, awesome people, spiders, wombats, emu's, wedgetail eagles, wicked other birds and corky roadhouses. Worth every ache/ tear and marchfly on my face.
