I’m a Formula 1 race correspondent traveling around the world, interviewing drivers all the time (see photos), and writing articles and news pieces about the sport.

I work for the portal Grande Prêmio, you can easily find my content. In parallel, I'm a chief editor at a technology company, a cloud called Nebius, based in Amsterdam. Previously, I was a chief editor of the retro computer museum, where I created a funny TikTok of 70K subscribers.

Together with my wife Anna, we own a dance studio in Amsterdam and live nearby.

I also have a rather noticeable hairstyle, which my aunt and I came up with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most valuable things in my life have come from connecting with people. I’m 100% an extrovert, love telling stories (many about F1, but not all :)) and listening to others.

Interests

• dancing
• technology
• racing

Music, Movies, and Books

My top three music artists are Robbie Williams, Bryan Adams, and Sting. I wear bracelets made from guitar strings used by Sting and Bryan — actively looking for a way to incorporate Robbie as well.

Love books by Jordan Mechner — many people know him as the creator of Prince of Persia, but there’s more to him than that. He wrote a wonderful book called Replay about three generations of his family, and he himself isn’t even the most interesting one.

My favorite movie is Children of Men by Alfonso Cuarón, with all those long takes that give you a theater-like experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved with my wife to the Netherlands. It wasn’t easy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d like to know what it’s like to live in countries other than the ones I’ve lived in. After three countries, I now see almost every new place as a potential home.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, journalistic experience, travel insights, and entrepreneurial tips gained at our dance studio in the Netherlands. Mostly stories, though :)
