About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I love to meeting locals on my travels, whith it you really get a chance to get to know the real culture of the country.
I am positive and outgoing girl who likes to explore and soak up outdoor life, nature and culture. I like being outdoors (camping, hiking, climbing), but also interested in culture thus with a good 'radar' for interesting gigs / events around town.

I live for more then a year in Amersfoort, and before I have lived in Utrecht, so I know my way around. I am happy to host someone who likes to get to know the city.
