About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My partner and I would love to find some land and start a permacultural market garden.

I would also like to build an Aikido Dojo on the property to host seminars and visitors who wish to train.

To understand how the Brain creates consciousness experience

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Over the years I have hosted many people from all over the world and have been hosted by many wonderful people. I like to share common interests and contribute to making the world a friendlier more inclusive place

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted many people from all over the world. In 2007 I have the pleasure over travelling the world and staying with hosts in over 10 countries

Interests

My principle interest is Aikido.

I love learning other languages (although I am not terribly good at any...)

Researching the Brain

Permaculture and sustainability

I love to play football (soccer). I love swedish and dutch people! reading in fun, and informative. Friends are a must, alcohol is a dear friend of mine (we are fighting at the moment though). Partying, complaining, life.... good fun, good times, great memories! and so on....
