My name is Max and I'm a 24 year old Dutch student living in Zaandam (just above Amsterdam). I study architecture at the Art Academy in Utrecht. I'm almost done and this summer I want to make a two month long trip in America, since I've never made a long trip like this.
I've never been to America but something about it has always attracted me into going, but I've never had the chance untill now. I'm hoping to meet lots of interesting people along the way and this seems to me to be the best way to achieve that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm planning a two month trip to America this summer, partly with my girlfriend and partly alone. The reason I want to use Coachsurfing is because I would like to meet new people and find out what they like to do in their home town.

Interests

Music, art and design are the biggest parts of my life. I play guitar myself and I'm almost done with my study in architecture. Beside these things I love making my own designs and ideas by hand.
