Hello! I'm Femke and I'm currently studying in Vancouver. I'm in my third year of my bachelor and having a great time on my exchange minor there. In general I'm very active and especially in Canada I've gone on a lot of hikes and have surfed a bit. In my free time I love to hang out with friends, go outside or watch movies.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I would love to meet new people through this platform and see another side of a culture and lifestyle in a more authentic way. Aside from that, the inside knowledge that local hosts can provide is in my eyes unmatched by any other form of traveling.

Música, películas y libros

In general I listen to a lot of jazz, funk, groove and neo-soul. Concerts, festivals and just live music are always on my agenda. My favorite movie is The Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind and my favorite book is To Kill a Mockingbird.

Algo increíble que he hecho

When I was working at a hostel in Panama I climbed to the highest point of the country, on top of Volcano Barú. It wasn't your usual hike though, since we did it during the night with a starting time of 11:45 pm. This way we got to see the sunrise in a way not many people have. It was a great bonding moment and definitely amazing.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

In general I would like to share my Dutch culture and experiences from my travels and current exchange. I love to cook and would be happy to provide some amazing meals. I'm an open-minded, social and energetic person and am always down for fun and spontaneous activities. Overall I would be happy to help with general maintenance, animals, kids and little tasks in and out of the house as an exchange for the generosity of the host.
