About Me

I work as a fulltime stained glass artist and I live together with my husband in Lage Zwaluwe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people while traveling, and to host them here in The Netherlands whenever I can.

Interests

As a person working with glass, I'm very much into arts and crafts. I love creating things.
I enjoy listening to music very much, and am always looking to discover cool new music!

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music I appreciate lots of different genres. I’m not very picky and always open to discover new cool stuff! I love to watch movies, some of my all-time favorites are American Beauty, Into the Wild, Intouchables, Amélie, Call me by your name, Blue is the warmest colour... and lotsss& lots more that I just forgot about :) I (used to) love reading books as well. Hoping to catch up on reading some time soon! Do you have any good recommendations?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching a group of elephants cross the road in front of our jeep in South Africa, and visiting Chernobyl and Pripyat.

Teach, Learn, Share

While I'm abroad, I like to experience the local life and mostly try to explore other things besides the touristic hotspots. I prefer outdoors over indoors!
