Overview
About Me
HoiHoi,
Well, who am I? I'm a kind of serious person with a good dose of South African "self spot" and dry humour who loves to laugh and have a good time. I love to meet new people and dive in their culture. I have always been fascinated by cultures and their languages, dishes and social acativities.
What do I love?
Food is definitely becoming a new obsession and I'm quite open minded about it if I say so myself ;)
Learning a new language is always a plus! And just in general, opening my horizon and getting out of my comfort zone is a new goal I have set for myself.
Also, I'm a booklover, can't put the things down. There's almost nothing better than having a drink, a chill place and a good book!
All in all,
I'm on a journey to getting to know myself better. To find out what I want and to cultivate what I already love. And ofcourse adding new things to love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
TRavelling has always been on my mind since I've been a young girl. When I get the chance I'm gone. Right now I'm travelling the way I've always wanted to and would love to share my experience and to hear other peoples experiences!

Sjoeh, thats a difficult one. If I'm honest, I dont think I have done that one amazing thing? Its getting closer though.
Teach, Learn, Share
- To love another you have to love yourself
- There is never a stupid question
