CURRENT MISSION

Crashing Cultures

ABOUT ME

In 2011 i finished my travels over land from Amsterdam to Myanmar in a minicar. camping and couches are essential to make this dream come true.

As the oldest of 4 kids i like to care although i'm sure my syblings are convinced they had a hard time as well with their oldest brother. I'll label myself as an empathic, trustfull guy who is always searching for the beauty of life. I am trying to face my struggles by meditating and sharing with friends. Current theme is being vulnarable when i need to. Good music, healthy food and a real encounter are certain things you can expect with me

PHILOSOPHY

What one meets in life is destiny,

How one meets it is self effort

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had really good experiences during homestays in countries like Chile, Myanmar, Vietnam and Cambodia. These were all spontaneous, this is not regular in a western world. Communities like this support it in a good way and that makes me a fan. It also makes me feel travelling in my own town

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a bunch of people now and was really lucky to meet such interesting people. IN 2010 i travel myself over the Silk route in the middle east and Iran, Pakistan direction. Hopefully i get the chance to participate in local life more intens through couchsurfingvisited 52 states (23.1%)Create your own visited map of The World

Interests
