Hi! I am Dieuwke and I am an artist and art teacher from the Netherlands.
I love meeting new people and sharing food, ideas and thoughts. I enjoy windsurfing, writing, reading, dancing, learning new perspectives and new languages, philosophy, and impulsive actions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to get to know your favourite/weirdest place in town and your community! I would also like to give back this way, I cannot host right now but can make people feel welcome in the Netherlands:))

Music, Movies, and Books

Music depends on my mood, I love jazz, rock and indie, and occasionally madrigals or other baroque music.

My favorite movie is The Fall by Tarsem Singh; I also really like A pigeon sat on a branch reflecting on existence by Roy Andersson and other bizarre, absurdist movies.

Writers: John Irving, Hella Haasse, Jostein Gaarder, Charles Taylor, Oscar Wilde, Paulo Coelho, Lydia Davis, Nancy Jouwe, Julie Louise Bacon, Gerrit Achterberg

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook vegan meals and share food, crazy ideas and nice conversations!
