My name is Christy
I was born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and have lived there ever since.
I love to travel, sometimes far away for a longer period of time (if time and money allows that), but I also travel in my own or in the neighboring counties as often as I can.

At the moment I live in a small place in the city center and when I'm not working I like to do things outside. I like to eat, drink, party, go for a bikeride somewhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to try this out. I have people and friends over often at my place, mostly ones I met travelling and I can often stay with them too in their place. Its always so much more fun then staying in a hotel and besides, the money we save can be spent way better (e.g. drinks and food! )

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kinds of music, also weird music
When I go to a party at home I mostly end up at a place where house, dub, drum and bass or hip hop is played. Allthough, when youre new somewhere its more likely to hear justin bieber in the bar. I like to exchange music and parties/festivals

Im not a great person to watch movies with since they make me sleep, but I do like to go out to the cinema, also moviewise I have a broad taste. I dont really enjoy hollywood action movies.

I love to read books that have this kind of magic of taking you away, see the place in your head and emphathize with the caracters in it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travelled around Asia alone twice now, allthough Ive never really felt too alone then. It was a big step for me at the time and now I think it maybe the best way to travel. I do smaller trips by myself and with friends/family.

Exploring the jungles of Borneo is something I see as the most amazing thing Ive done so far. Climbing mountains, sleeping in the wild and seeing wildlife from close

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learning (the basics of) new languages, and helping others learning the languages I know well.

My French is still quite bad, I do want to learn to communicate well in French in the future!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A drink, something nice to eat and when they want a good time in the place we are.
I know a lot of places that may be interesting or fun to visit in Amsterdam and around.
