About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live my life based on the quote of buddha: 'There's no way to happiness, happiness is the way'.

ABOUT ME

I'm a energetic girl who wants to do everything at the same time with a busy schedule. I'm a bachelorstudent Cultural Anthropology at the University Utrecht so my main interest is to gain more insight in the cultural differences of world perception by travelling and meet different people. I really love to dance. Dancing in clubs, goaparties or perform, it does't matter. I'm a(tribal)bellydanceteacher and performer so most of the time I dance four or even five times a week. I also like to invite friends to come to my cosy room to eat together or drink a red wine or minttea to go to the city afterwards. I want to discover, enjoy myself en I want to be underway.

PHILOSOPHY

As I said before, 'There's no way to happiness, happiness is the way.' - Buddha.
And off course, don't worry, be happy! I try to enjoy every minute of my life. (But sometimes I'm also tenacious ;))

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste of music is so extended, actually it cannot be defined. But I like every kind of music which gives me energy to dance or music which can makes me very calm. I like for example, psychedelic goa, D&B but also R&B and rock. Going to concerts and parties is one of my favorite things to do. I prefer movies about daily life with very sentimental music so I can cry my heart out ;) I don't like SF etc. and whén I'm watching television I'm fascinating by documentaries about people with an impressive lifetale and programmes about annoying children who must be educated haha.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding a huge black horse on the beach in morocco with high speed. That was an amazing experience. I've never felt so happy like then before.
