I lived in the city centre of Amsterdam, which basically fills my mailbox annually with more couchsurfing requests than paper towels used by Americans.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After ending my studies, I cycled The Study Road through China, Kyrgyzstan and Kazachstan, following parts of the ancient silk road. I was really lucky to get to see China in this transition fase, coming from ancient empire up to next level kapitalism in one incredible pass. Made me realize how great Europe is, and how much I appreciate clean toilets.
At home (Amsterdam) I hosted a couple of cyclist using WarmShowers, cycled alone throug Europe and enjoyed the open communication, stories and diverse people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Let me tell you all about it when we meet

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to share some daily activities with couchsurfers such as sporting, cooking or walking down the Amstel and quasi-spontaneously ending up in one good looking winebar. But basically anything would suit for just some casual conversation about the origin of the universe, future of brainenhancers or using passata over puree in Spaghetti alla Puttanesca. And most of all: feel free to make your own plans.
