CURRENT MISSION

See the world up close and real ;)

ABOUT ME

I am Frensis, and I am 22 years old. I am currently a student ( Planning to be that for a while still.) I like to travel, am pretty random, and make decisions head over heals. I dislike planning. Go with the flow. Life is too short so better enjoy it ... aka PARTY

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem ( I know that sounds really cheesy...). I just believe that there is certain things to life that shouldnt be thought about too long but just done. Don't plan, don't hesitate just do ( and that sounds like a commercial...)

Anyway. I guess that is what I believe in

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to stay on somebody's couch every once in a while, so that I can see the city but also get to know the people that host me. I am also very much willing to have people stay with me and in this way broaden my horizons.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far, but hope to get some soon :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have taught at an Asylum Centre, which was pretty amazing to me. I taught these people dutch so that they had basic survival skills.

I am in a board of a pretty big student association ( 600 people) at a really small university ( 600 people..) so I guess I know everybody around me right now nad I guess that is something special .

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn: Real cultures, new places, different identities. Not the stuff you read in books and travel guides, but the real thing. I guess that is what couch surfing is for ... ( I guess I can also just give that back to you: the real dutch identity not the stereotype ..)

I could share: I am a pretty good debater so I could teach somebody that ( not sure wheter somebody wants that) ... I taught languages for a while so I could do that too ... I guess I could also just be a good person to have fun with :)
