CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying my life in the Spanish sun!

ABOUT ME

I'm a Dutchman living in Spain, I'm now an English teacher.
I got into traveling a few years ago, and from the very first moment I was addicted! I discovered more cities, music, history, art, culture and amazing people than I could ever imagine, and I'm sure it changed me in every possible way. If you want to know more....let's spend some time together ;)

PHILOSOPHY

´Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime´
-Mark Twain-

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I'm at home I try to host and meet travelers, and when I travel I love meeting locals in their environment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with people in the US, Morocco, and all over Europe, had a great time meeting all these people in their own environment! In my flat in Cordoba I've hosted travelers from different places.

Interests

I love learning languages, cyclotourism, avoiding the tourist trail, literature, music, football (soccer ;), anthropology, history, mountains, meeting eccentrics, etc.
