About Me

I try to enjoy life, try new things and be happy.

- about me -
I am a cheerful, happy person who has a positive look at the world.
I like to dance (bachata and salsa) spend time with friends, play boardgames and snowboard if possible.

At the moment I work as a primary school teacher.

I love to help people out in every way I can and make people smile.

- Philosophy -
At the moment its just: live the life you can and get everything out of it, just because its possible

"gewoon omdat het kan"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

-How I participate in CS -
I moved back to Breda and have a spare room. Not a fixed bed though. Because it is my workspace too. I have a pretty full life/scedule, so that is why I am maybe hosting. Because I think hosting is more than just a bed. I think it is spending a bit of time together, at least.

My first CS experience was at Steve's house in Italy. It was a really good couch and an excellent bbq on the rooftop.
