ABOUT ME

Hey! I am Devika. I am currently studying in the Netherlands, at the Utrecht University. I study Science and Innovation Management.
I love going to new places, meet new people and experience the nature and culture. I love to get off the beaten track, the most profound experiences I had were all far away from the crowd. Furthermore I like adventure. A long hike, snorkeling, mauntainbiking, bungeejumping, stuff like that.

I like creating things (painting and drawing for example) and good conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is amazing to get to know differences in culture, but it is even more amazing to learn that we have so much incommon with people that live so far away from us. I want to challenge my own preconceptions about other cultures.

Interests

I like adrenaline and feeling my senses to their maximum. I also like to keep learning new things and to challenge myself. Furthermore I like traveling, but I also like coming home a lot haha

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in Costa Rica, I climbed the highest mauntain overthere which is called the 'Chirripo'. It was a long hike, 36km long and very steep. In the end I reached a lagoon which was called 'Dikevi'. I was there all alone. Reaching the lake and being there was the most rewarding experience I have ever had.
