About Me

I'm 27 year old student International Business and Management Studies at the University of Amsterdam. I also work part-time as a Sales Associate at a technology company.

I like to travel a lot (especially camping). My favourite spots are Ubud in Bali, Indonesia and New Orleans, LA. The trip to Indonesia was my first real 'out of the comfort zone' travel. I travelled there on my own (before that I never left Europe) and it was an amazing experience which ended partying with several foreign new friends at a pool.

After that I occasionally visited cities in Europe (Berlin, Budapest, Paris) and I loved it. From 2012 on I had the opportunity to visit the eastern / southern states of the United States 6 times and I met some great friends for life. The part that still fascinates me was that I went on a skiing trip in the best snow I've ever had and 6 days later me and some new friends where drinking Hurricane's in New Orleans.

Next to traveling I like to ski, boating (I have my own boat in Amsterdam and like to go on longer trips), photography, philosophy and cooking (especially French cuisine).

I've hosted several other guests in my house but not via CouchSurfing, a friend of me introduced me to the world of couch surfing and I like to meet new people.
