Personal Description

Remco a.k.a. Remus:

-Born in The Netherlands in 1986 in a small and boring village called Bleskensgraaf.

-Studying social work in Rotterdam

-Working with mentally disabled people in Rotterdam and Sliedrecht

-Supporting Feyenoord Rotterdam and FC Dordrecht

-Frequently visiting (irish) pubs and concerts

-Involved in the dutch socialist party

-Inspired by christianity, buddhism, socialism and Socrates

-Has the worst sense of humor ever

-Doesn't take himself too seriously

-Loves to hear stories from fellow travellers

-Is still trying to make a difference

-Likes to bring the mosh and just go crazy

-Would like to meet as many nice couchsurfers as possible

-Wants to place Dordrecht on the couchsurfing map

-Is tired of filling in this "all about you" box

How I Participate in CS

I participate by helping out the people, who are visiting the Netherlands, as good as possible. There is always a couch available :) Besides this I try to attend the local couch surf meetings and I try to promote and support CS2 as good as possible. Currently I'm also trying to promote the entire project in Dordrecht, getting people more involved and organising meetings

CouchSurfing Experience

Meeting people from Iran, Canada, Finland and India during the meetings in Rotterdam is totally awesome! I love to hear people telling about their country and culture, can't get enough of it! I surfed some couches and hosted some surfers and I enjoyed it from the beginning untill the end! This project really is an added value to my life!

Interests

Travelling, visiting concerts and festivals, playing volleybal, soccer and squash, watching nice movies, couchsurfing, urban exploring and ofcourse hanging out with nice people, watching family guy and so on

Philosophy

-Work like you don't need the money
dance like no one is watching
sing like no one is listening
love like you've never been hurt (Irish saying)

-Growing up in an age where monotony reigns...it's so easy to keep your heart and mind locked away. And it's up to you to rise up...to break away (Modern life is war)

-Be patient and you will finally win, for a soft tongue can break hard bones. (Proverbs 28:13)

-He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature. (Socrates)

-Worthless people live only to eat and drink; people of worth eat and drink only to live. (Socrates)

-As the builders say, the larger stones do not lie well without the lesser. (Plato)

-In the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher. (Dalai Lama)

-A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history. (Gandhi)
-I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. (Mandela)

-My warrior woman. My Valkyrie. You'll always be mine, always and never. Never. The Fire, baby. It'll burn us both. It'll kill us both. There's no place in this world for our kind of fire. Always and never. If I have to die for you tonight, I will. (Dwight from Sin City)

Music, Movies, Books

Movies:
Jackie Brown, Babel, Sin city, 300, Requiem for a dream, 21 gramms, Lock stock & two smoking barrels, Snatch, The green mile, V for vendetta, Dude where's my car, The painist, Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, The constantine gardener, Face/off, Magnolia, Paradise now, Fight club, Donnie brasco, American history x, The butterfly effect, Boondock saints, Freeze frame, Memento, Bowling for columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11, Sicko, La vita e bella, The jacket, The big lebowski, Walk the line, Shawshank redemption,Hotel rwanda,A beautiful mind, American beauty, Trainspotting and many more......

Music:
All kinds of music actually. I usually listen to post-hardcore/metalcore (noisy music). But I love "pubmusic" aswell or good old Johhny Cash and Frank Sinatra. Basically all music that in filled with emotion

Types of People I enjoy

I enjoy people who are so kind to please me by visiting dordrecht and my place :)I don't really know people that I don't enjoy being with. Perhaps racists or something like that, but I don't expect them to be on CS2 :)It really doesn't matter where you come from, what age you are, what music you like to listen to etc. I'm sure we'll have a good time

Teach, Learn, Share

Ofcourse i'd be glad to help you learning your first words in Dutch. If you need some explanation for the dutch public transport system, the political situation, the dutch history, the weird habits we have, and so on, feel free to ask and I'd be happy to tell you about it. I'm interested in politics, filosophy, religion, movies, music and you ofcourse :-)

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Volunteering in a buddhist monastry. I've worked there with Hiv/aids infected people who were in a terminal phase. My mission was to help them in their dayly routine,to cheer them up and to talk about things that kept them busy

What can i say, Remco is the shit! And I say this whith northan californian slang where shit is positive.


i spent two days with Remco, Jaap and Emilie. Inbetween drinking lots of beer and little sleep, i kicked it hard with these people. We visited the whindmills and ate fries with mayo.... and partied hard, real hard in the irish pub. Took the last train back at like 4am. Had breakfast of chocolate spread, chicken pesto spread and lots of black coffee. Good times with Remco, he is the shit. So is Emilie, she is the bomb.
Come visit california one day.

My surf experience (after my host) :

My wish was exhausser, I went in Dordercht. It confirms the feeling developed during our last meeting, we're friends.

Thank you for having spent much time with me to discover your place.
Thank you for introducing me to find vegetarian food, I really enjoyed it. I loved the time together to play Jenga, especially wages.I hope to see you at my birthday.

My host experience

Remco ??? I like ! He is the first prostitute of neederlands !NOT!
He is a person who has a lot of humor, very pleasant and very respectful. I hope come in his home one day. I would also like to see a sheep'hat (I do not know if it is written like that). I spent very good time with him and his friends. In fact I miss they already. As he told me : you have a friend in neederland, i tell him you have a friend and a place in Paris.

When our Amsterdam couch fell through, Jaap & Remco generously agreed to have us come earlier than we'd planned. They were wonderful and gracious hosts, full of fun, & despite our age differences we found many interests in common to talk about. More "souls of hospitality" & just the way CS should be.

I stayed at his and Jaap's place for one night with my friend Anni. Our trip was coming to its end, so we hadn't too much time to get to know Jaap and Remco better. But anyway, we had a great time there as both guys are very easy-going and fun to be with, also very helpful. And they introduced me to snakebite which I'm more or less in love with nowadays;) Thanks!

I asked on the dordrecht group someone to take me to a party or to drink a beer, and he answered very soon, asking what I need, offering a couch, etc, really an CS "Ambassor"... so I join him and his friends to many partiers in Rotterdam, a fantastic night, and also used his "couch"!
Thanks a lot Remus hope some day to have the honour to be your host in Rio!

Remco is a great host. Definitely the number one choice in Dordrecht imho. When I was at his place he was just moving in but despite the boxes and stuff everywhere it was obvious that Remco is a mature kid who knows how to see to the best of his guests and show them a good time. Join the Scandi-navy and sail to Sweden!

Isn't there a more positive option than "extremely positive"? Pity, I'd like to use it. There are Superman and Batman, but this guy is an even bigger hero. If you like your bad jokes, the worst kind of humor and laugh till you drop.....look no further. He's loving, caring and very trusting. I learned a lot from him the last years. There isn't anything you can't talk to him about, very open-minded. He has an answer to anything. We go way back, so believe me ;-) Meet him!

I met this guy several times now, small talks every time, so getting to know each other goes slowly, but that's what you get when 20+ people keep showing up at the weekly meetings. To me he is an open and interesting guy and I'm sure we're going to have a lot of fun with him at future events and meetings. We also like the same football team, so can we not be friends?
