About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having adventures

ABOUT ME

Hej,

I'm officially Dutch but I live in Belgium to dodge tax- ehm, I like it there.

I like snowmen, thunderstorms and ants and my shoe size is 45.

If you want to know more - contact the NSA, my mother or Mimiron. They all have very nice stories about me.

PHILOSOPHY

Not all those who wander are lost.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd really like to travel around a little, but since I'm still studying I don't have that much to spare. I usually go camping, but couchsurfing seems like a good alternative.

Hosting is tricky since I still live at my dad's, but I can always try and work something out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None. Yet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I like watching flies fly.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything works - the more you know, the better.
I'm especially interested in all sorts of history, though my current favourites have to Roman and Napoleontic stuff.
I also like DIY and cooking, so that works too.
