Hi there!

If getting to know me, you get to know a whirlwind of positive energy! If you get me enthusiastic, there is no stopping me. I keep smiling, talking and joking.

I'm curious for other people's view on the world and their way of life. While couchsurfing, either hosting of surfing, I would love to cook for others and enjoy the meal while having proper conversations.

I lost my heart to the city of Gouda and have been living there for a decade. But then I met Michel and he was able to conquer my heart even more then Gouda did. So now we are living together in the city of Woerden. We've got a guest room and would be happy to welcome you: please read My Home before requesting.

⚠️ Important ⚠️
Unfortunately some think it is okay to use CS for potential hook ups. It is not! Couchsurfing should be about genuine connecting, without any risk to be harmed. I am NOT interested in any contact of that kind. Use other apps for that, and let CS be a safe space for everyone. Thank you.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm on CS because I've experienced how nice it is to show foreign travellers my hometown and the things we do in the Netherlands. It makes you meet people from all over the world, hearing a lot of their international stories and having a great time together. :)

When couchsurfing myself it has always been a way to discover other parts of the world from a non-touristy angle and it has been about connecting as well.

Intereses

Cycling, hiking, sailing, indoor wall climbing (because there is no such thing as Dutch mountains), swimming, going to music concerts and dancing. And off course: meeting new people!

Música, películas y libros

I do not read many books, but I would still call myself a bookwurm. Because when a book caught my interest, I will finish it as soon as possible. You'll find me reading in bed, carrying it around in the train and getting lost in it during my lunchbreaks. Ha ha.

Listening music is something I do more often, actually every day. There are a lot of music genres I like: rock, soul, metal, alternative, dance, pop, classical and punk. And the favourite genre keeps shifting. While writing this , my favourite genre is Dutch Pop and soul/funk. Might be something completely different when we get the chance to meet.

Algo increíble que he hecho

All those times when people told me not to go traveling as a solo woman. I proobed them wrong by experiencing that the world has mostly good people, wherever you go.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Enjoying life will make you live longer. If it doesn't, at least you've got to enjoy it.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

When surfing: I'm a tidy person who's flexible in adjusting to your (worklife) rhytm. I would love to cook for you, get to know you and explore the area with you. Even though; I also need some time by myself. Since a few years I've been together with Michel and I'm probably bringing him as well :-) He's a really relaxed and easy-going guy. Don't be scared by his height; he's almost 2 metres tall. He has a CS profile himself: https://couchsurfing.page.link/LGvttDJRuog4mQTy9

When hosting: We can offer you the guest room with a double bed in it. We've got bicycles available to use to explore the area. Our house is situated nearby the four big Dutch cities, which are easy accessable by bike or by train. Would love to taste one of your national dishes and will definetely try to cook you one as well! Because of my job in health care, my schedule varies from day-, to evening- and nightshifts, so it might not always be easy to spend time together. But I actually like the combination of spending time together and spending some time apart. We will have plenty of tips for activities to do by yourself. We will make it work!
