CURRENT MISSION

to become a journalist

ABOUT ME

Happy, internationally orientated 20-something (Whose name is actually not Ben Paulussen, something got wrong there). I am very eager to explore the world in all its aspects. Currently I'm struck by Nordic fever, but I do want to visit other countries as well. I love being on the road, I hate waiting for trains or planes. Put me on a train or a plane to anywhere and I am happy. PS: I do not apply fake tan.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't be afraid to make mistakes, but do make sure you wake up the next morning.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live together with my boyfriend Jeroen (http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/capatin_of_quarantine) in Schaarbeek. Having blended two formerly separate interiors, we now have some surplus sleeping capacity. That means: a couch is available!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Jeroen and I couchsurfed our way through Norway and Sweden, which was a very nice first experience with the CS-project. We met loads of interesting new people!
