My name is Charlotte Apers and I live in a small apartment in Amsterdam centre with two annoying but sweet cats. I love traveling the world and meeting new people.

I'm working as a freelance artist, mostly in the illustration and animation field which is my passion! You can take a look at my work here: www.charlotteapers.com

I love being around people, but I also like my alone time. I enjoy talking but can also be quiet. I would say I'm enthusiastic, calm, curious, open minded, thankful and a dreamer. I don't only love to travel the globe, I also kind of travel in my mind a lot of the times…

I think a lot about life and it's meaning, but it will be a mystery forever. Don't mind. The sun rises anyway.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm visiting other countries I would like to try and understand the culture, get to know people, talk to people who live there, and try and see things from other perspectives. Meeting new people opens your eyes, there's so much interesting things in this world! I'd never want to stop learning from others and charing experiences.

I'm dreaming about traveling the world forever while freelancing or working local jobs. For now, as long as I'm situated in Amsterdam, I'm happy to welcome other travelers into my little condo so now and then and to meet up with other travelers looking for some company!

I'm a newbie here on couchsurfing.com, so help me out :)!
