About Me

ABOUT ME

For the last four years I have lived in Amsterdam. I study medecin here and at the moment I'm taking a break to see more of the world!! When I go back, I'll start with my internships and hopefully become a docter after that:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Back in Amsterdam, always happy to show people!! It is such an amazing place, love living there:D But I share my place with roommates, so there's not a couch available.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Got introduced to couchsurfing in Thailand, that was so random! I met a couchsurfer and he invited me to stay at his place in BKK. Even till that moment I didn't know about couchsurfing, but there were many couchsurfers at his place, so found out soon enough. Was a really good first couchsering-experience!! Especially in places like BKK, it's great to live in a non-touristic area (I still remember the market with fresh fish jumping around near his house) and to get al these local tips where to go and what to see!

Interests

I love basketball! Played it since I'e been 15. It's something I really mis during travelling--> played it a few times in Nepal, but that wasn't really fair, considering that everybody is so small and I'm not:D Other than that, I love dancing, from ballet to salsa!
