About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Establishing after travelling

ABOUT ME

I am always keen on broadening my knowledge and experiences. It just keeps me going.

PHILOSOPHY

As long as I have new things to learn I have a reason to live. And when will I know everything ???

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can hang out with couchsurfers in Antigua. I used to host a lot of couchsurfers but cannot do so anymore as we are now running an aparthotel in Antigua, so unfortunately I cannot give any rooms for free anymore.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Sleeping at friend's places has always been a very interesting activity for me. You get to know a totally different way of living than your own.
I've stayed at host families in England, France, Spain, Guatemala and the US. These are the experiences that I will most remember.

Interests

I love motorcycling, hiking, travelling, do crazy stuff or just go to the cinema.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a fan of Mr. Bean and I love to dance merengue and salsa in a Dominican carwash ;-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living amongst the Dominicans was one of the greatest experiences, Dominicans are the happiest and most positive people I've ever known.

Travelling through Thailand for 2 months made me fall in love with this country.

Travelling and working in Guatemala for 1 year, I got to know the love of my life! I 've been happily married to a Guatemalan beauty for over 5 years.

Teach, Learn, Share

Be open and observe! Other people don't live worse or better than you, they just live different!

Austria, Belize, Costa Rica

Countries I’ve Lived In
