CURRENT MISSION

Wherever you are, BE there..

ABOUT ME

Since april 2011 I live together with Tom in the city centre of Arnhem. Before we hosted people separately.

At first something about my motivation to join CS. I discovered the fun of traveling during my trip to Tanzania. There I met people who were so friendly and hospitable. I was impressed by them and I never will forget that time. To do something in exchange me and Tom decided to host people at our own place in the Netherlands as well.

I’m pretty easy going. The best way to describe my sense of humour is self-mockering. Don't take yourself too serious in life :) My mission is not to judge people only by looking at their appearances. At first get to know people.. give people the chance to show you the best side of themselves.

In my free time art, music and especially traveling occupies my mind. Sharing thoughts and traveling experiences is wonderful. I make an effort to get to know other people.

PHILOSOPHY

Have the courage to express yourself and give others the chance to do the same.
