About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world through brand new eyes - To get inspired.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Amsterdam, working part time at a clothing store and trying to set up my own video project. I've worked in video production for about three years now, and have decided to focus on working on my own narratives for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To gain new experiences, hear about other ways of approaching life and to overall have a great time wherever I am.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved abroad to London straight out of high school (it felt like a big step at the time, as I grew up in a tiny town in the Netherlands). Completely underestimated that decision though! Thought I would step into a Notting Hill / Bridget Jones type of lifestyle and meet at least 5 Alex Turner - esque types in week 1.

Although none of that happened - it was the best decision I ever made. It gave me lots of new experiences, and in turn a more understanding approach to different viewpoints and lifestyles.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach / Learn / Share (with) me - and I will try my best to reciprocate it!
