Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
touch home base and invest time in my own developement.
ABOUT ME
I love life and traveling. We, my friend Koen and I, traveled through Europe. We were gone for 10 months. For Koen and me it was a very special trip! We learned and experienced so much!
Couch surfing helped us a great deal to make contact with local people and learned their story!
Now we are back and adjusting to be back home. It is great to be near family again.
PHILOSOPHY
My personal philosophy is that we have to live life at the fullest, because before you know it, its over..
Help each other to reach our goals! Make the world a better place. It's all cliché but I'm really optimistic. I can go on and on.... I love to philosophize...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I want to invite people to visit us in Britsum. Here we have a nice and quiet place wich we can share with couchsurfers and friends.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We hosted one girl, Meredith, in our camper van this journey in Denmark. That was very nice experience!
We also surfed Anu in Tallin. Also very nice experience. It is a perfect way to learn more about each other!!
Now we are staying with Gossia, Ewa and Kuba. They are very lovely and sweet people!
Troughout our whole trip in Europe we had great couchsurf experiences. In our trip we didn't need a place to sleep because we travelled with out camper, but we used couchsurfing as a tool to meet local people or international students. This way we learned a lot about the country and culture of our hosts!!
Interests
My interests are sports, music, traveling, watching movies, hiking, making music, singing and dancing. I also love to play any kind of card or board game. (Koen loves these things to ;))
