CURRENT MISSION

To travel as much as I can before it's too late

ABOUT ME

I'm a Dutch guy, born and raised. Since Holland is a tiny country, i grew up always wanting to see more of the world. My fascination for other cultures and the reason why people do what they do made me study Social Sciences. Before i'm in a dead-end deskjob, i want to experience the world as much as i can.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By spreading the word about CS everywhere I go, even in the middle of nowhere.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't had too many Couch-surfing experiences yet, but the experiences i had were more than welcoming. Stayed with some very nice people in Spain and Sweden, and we went out together, shared food together, and explored the local culture together. I hosted some people myself too, we went out, and i discovered new things about my own, Dutch, culture.
