About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Food for your soul...

ABOUT ME

I dont wear glasses
I am not a vegetarian
I have a scar on my left wrist
I played rugby till I broke my ankle
I dont have a pet
I prefer showers to baths ;-)

Friends tell me I am a pretty bubbly chatty character. I love to meet new people, and also feed them as I love to cook and host! Apart from all that, filling your time meeting new and interesting people from all over is very rewarding. Travelling, I think is one of the best things you can fill your time with... And you can start within your own hometown, am sure there are places you always said you should go see... well do it, whats stopping you?

PHILOSOPHY

No day but today... This is a song from the musical RENT... and this is how I try to live!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I tend to host more then I surf... but when I have time. Right now the guest room is the office/therapy room therefore there is zero space for the guest bed. This should be short-term but for now there is a couch but really only for a child a person 160 cm or shorter!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have recently met a few couch surfing members, and I love the openedness and like-minded mentally! Very similar to me... Couch surfing is really a great thing, I now try to spread the word when I meet like minded people who have yet to hear of this! I surfed abroad for the first time last year in Korea and this was amazing. It enriched my trip so much and learnt so much from the locals living there that i became totally inspired by the Korean kulture!

Interests

Theatre, theatre, theatre.. oh and musical theatre. Acting, singing and dancing, play a few musical instruments: piano, drums, guitar, ukulele, sax. Would one day love to have a music room full of musical instruments! Rugby - such a great sport to play! Wakeboarding, skiing, jogging, scuba diving, poker, dogs, anything that is cleverly or beautifully designed...

Music, Movies, and Books

Most recently film that had a big effect of me... intouchables. Its a french movie, based on a true story and it just warms your heart this story, and is also one of the funniest movies I have ever seen!

Books I would read again because they were so good: Life of Pi, Once a fortune teller told me, Twilight (cheesy i know),

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching the sunrise on Bryce canyon.
Walking in Yosemite national park among the Giant sequoias trees... you feel like you are 5 years old.
Performing the musical Slice of Saturday on a open-air stage overlooking the mountains in Davos.
Swam in the volcanic sea pools of Madeira
Dived in the Philippines with a school of Jacks.
Performed in my all time favourite musical RENT
Seen wild horses running in Dartmoor national park
