About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See more than I remember, and remember more than I see!

ABOUT ME

I'll keep it short: I love adventures of all kinds, whether out in nature, on the road or to great music. I'm inquisitive, impulsive and always keen for unique encounters.

PHILOSOPHY

I am really inquisitive about the world we live in (that's why I travel) and enjoy a mixture of adventure (usually outdoors), conversations with people of different backgrounds, and understanding things through time spent reading and reflecting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Less than I'd like!

Interests

I enjoy most outdoor activities (trail running, mountain biking, surfing) and am always keen to learn a new one! I also get bored if I don't keep my brain occupied, so I tend to read a lot on a wide variety of subjects. Most of all I enjoy learning new things from interesting people like you!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Most folk and rock music from the '60s and on.
Movies: When I do watch movies, they are generally adventure thrillers such as the Bourne trilogy.
Books: Generally non-fiction and science- or technology-oriented.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding 1000km on the Ho Chi Minh trail in Vietnam, on a 110cc Honda carrying two people and two large backpacks strapped to the back, on roads that are supposed to be national highways but are more like a motocross track!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Czech Republic, Malaysia, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Netherlands, South Africa
