I'm a girl from the Netherlands and I've always loved to travel the world. It's been my dream since I was little to backpack and meet people all over the world. I joined Couchsurfing in the hope that I will meet lovely people on the way and I hope that with people like you, I can expand my horizons and learn how cultures differ around the world. If it's the other way around or if I can help you out with anything (looking after the children or pets or so), I'd be glad to help you guys too. In my normal life I am graduated from vwo highschool, and therefore I speak Dutch, English, German, and Spanish. I love to make music, I play guitar, piano, a little bit cello and I sing. I also love to dance. I prefer Salsa and Latin. Besides that, I like to get into a good book and I love sports in general. I hope you're as enthusiastic as I am and I'm looking forward to meeting you :)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet people all over the world, to exchange culture and to experience new traditions. It's always the people that make the place and experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

> Actually I listen to a whole wide range of music. From Disney to musical and from oldies to pop, as long as it has a melody. I've visited a couple of concerts of Bruce Springsteen, I've seen Mumford and sons and Tom Jones. Since I was little, I've been taken to music festivals by my mom, so I love these too.

> I love movies. If you want to escape the world for a second, movies and series are the solution. I'm always in the mood for a good thriller or a movie with a lot of action, but a romantic comedy is my guilty pleasure. Movies like 'Taken', 'Crossroads', Disney movies and musicals, I can watch a hundred times.

> For the same reason I love movies, I love books too. Books like 'Me before you', 'before you go' and 'the hunger games' are my favourite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've already seen quite some places, but last year I backpacked through Europe for half a year on my own. Mostly because of Couchsurfing, I met so many lovely people and I saw so many beautiful places, an experience to never forget. Recently, a couple of weeks ago, I backpacked through Bali for 3 weeks. Even though it was not comparable to Europe, this was amazing on itself.

I'd like to share the Dutch culture with people and make some unforgettable memories with each other.
