Hi there! I’m a 24-year-old Dutch guy who loves to travel, meet new people, see new places and try out new food. Ever since I can remember, I have loved to travel and discover new places. The fact that traveling allows me to learn about a culture, the history of a country and the local cuisine is what makes traveling so worthwhile.

I’m a big fan of trying new foods, hip-hop and R&B (and a lot of more genres), visiting museums, watching good TV Series and learning more about culture and cultural identity worlwide.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It would be really interesting to meet new people who can teach me something about their country and culture!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After watching a Dutch travel show, I decided that it was time for my first solo backpacking trip. I booked a ticket to Iran and traveled aroundt the country for one month in 2012. This triphas been the most rewarding and my favorite trip so far!
