About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a social girl, like to relax and enjoy life. I can be fun and active, but also quiet.
People I love new cultures and explore new things.. I love traveling and meet new people, see new places and get new experiences.

Started in Indonesia i november 2016 and am in South America now. Arrived in Chile in november 2018. From there I traveled north to Bolivia and Peru, where I am at the moment. After Peru traveling further north to Ecuador and Colombia. For now traveling with a German friend who I met in New Zealand.

PHILOSOPHY

Plans are made to be broken

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed at 3 different countries so far. I like it that you get interessant information. Like information of places not touristic or typical food. Further I always like to see how people live and what their habits are.

Further i hope to meet new people here to hang out with and to get more of these experiences :-)

Interests

I love being active, hiking, swimming and surfing (I'm terrible). But I can be really lazy and enjoying my movies and books as well. I love discover new countries, culture and meeting new people.
