About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make a difference in this world and add something positive and beautiful.

ABOUT ME

I'm from Amsterdam where I run a tour and chocolate business using vintage cars to drive people around! In the winter I like to escape the cold and travel around myself. I try to live as earth conscious as possible and want to involve myself more in green projects and ways to improve the environment.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live according to the 8 limbs of yoga by Patanjali. Read about it if you don't know what it is yet ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've travelled around the world when I was 20 years old and have used Couchsurfing as a way to meet local people and stay over for a few days. It has made my trip unforgettable and I would love to travel this way again one day!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed couches and met amazing people and will hopefully surf more couches and meet more amazing people!

Interests

I love nature, yoga, making delicious chocolates and other beautiful food! I also love traveling and seeing all the beauty this world has to share with us.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like music from artists such as Ben Howard and Xavier Rudd. Anything easy to listen to and with beautiful lyrics. Not much of a reader unless it's about psychology or spirituality, or gardening and how to make your own cosmetics and things like that!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Planted a couple of trees and I want to plant many more!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a chocolatier and I like to share my knowledge about chocolate and how to make it. I would love to learn how to play the guitar!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun stories, things I've learned over the years and I think I can be quite funny and inspiring. (people say haha) If I can I will bring some of my self made chocolates! Or I can teach you how to make it and we make some fresh chocolates :)
