About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I really like to see the northern light

ABOUT ME

I'm a person that likes to think about almost everything but mostly I try to think about politics and how to improve the world. I like reading fantasy and Since fiction books and after I read a book I want to know all about the writer and I want to know the opinions of other people who read the book.

I also like sports a lot I play volleybal and a lot more in my week I spent about 16 hours of sports.

As for my personality, i'm an open person but if i believe in something you cannot talk it out of my head easily but ofcourse i really like to hear what you have to say :P

PHILOSOPHY

I really like to keep this short cause if i have to put it all over here it's far too much. I believe that there is something but I do not believe in something concrete like god or anything. I like to give my own twist to everything that I read about religions. And I also like to compare sience to faith pretty interesting if you ask me..

For the rest.. If you like to here more or want to discuss anything with me you're welcome of course

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate by trying to keep my profile up to date. Unfortunatly it does not always work out the way I planned to, but I do my best. Also I like crossing country's and like having people around and tell them about the life as it is here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my friend started a while before me he just had an American here and I really enjoyed his stay

For the rest of my experiences: i've been in France for half a year. That's also the reason why I didn't respond to messages. I did not have internet over there so sorry people but i'm home again

Music, Movies, and Books

60s music (bob dylan CSNY but especially pink floyd)

i read biographs of singers, i also like reading about sience and paranormal things

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

from my point of view it is seeing legends of the 60s proforming live. I've been to: Jethro tull, pink floyd(what's left of it and live8), bob dylan, the animals, alan parsons project, moody blues, focus, and the rolling stones. The biggest thing for me was Jethro tull, Ian anderson is my hero

but the most amazing thing I have ever done is contacting a whine villager with his own whine yard in the south of france and work there for almost a year. It's been the best experience of my life
