ABOUT ME

Hello I'm Jan Jaap,

I'm a student in social work and I’m doing my internship now ad a non-government organization. Here I’m trying to do researcher about social isolation. Whit my other time I work in a movie theatre with a bar, try to be in good conditions, want to know if there is a nice exhibition. I’d like to play games and prefer to play it together. If there is any time left you can find me in a bar with a drink, playing soccer, make photos, seeing movies, doing nothing, try cooking, play theater and the things I forget. For the moment I travel a bit more and maybe I’ll go and see more of the world that way.
Further I’m an easy guy, I’m don’t like to argue what we need to do, I’m more the kind of guy just do. I’d like to discus al kinds of things with a drink. When there is music I really love to dance and become in some kind of trance. There is a more I can tell but not for today.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't tell them show them!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard friends talk about it. It's really nice to meet new people this way and see a city from a different side.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I meet a few couch servers myself and they were very nice. But this was because they were surfing ad a friend of my.

Interests

I really love the arts curtain if it is contemporary; paintings, photos (series), installations, sculptures. I really like the abstract figures and that minds me on architecture. I like to see where people live and in what kind of way people go. I really like the social environment we are living in. How we act, how we do, handle, how we manage. It’s really nice to sit somewhere and watch people going and changing. I like to make pictures and try to make series, but I’m still going analogue with my Nikon. I’m interest in the way how people think what people want to accomplish or how they just enjoy the moment. I love to go dancing on electronic music, but also it’s really nice to hear a band. Then I’m trying to read ‘the must read’ but I’m not a great reader so it’s going slow. Sometimes you can find me watching theatre or making it. I really like to go crazy and think outside the box, playing is helping me with that. Drinking a bear with some friends is always nice to do.
