ABOUT ME

Hi guys!

My name is Jackie, I'm 25 and live in Nijmegen. I Just finished studying Creative (art) Therapy here. I've travelled in Asia for two months before going to college, it lighted my travelling fire! Im now travelling in Peru with my sister Diana.

I'm creative, love to paint (my room is filled with paintings), draw, dance, make clothes and way more! Also like to go to festivals or stay home and do nothing all day just watching movies. I think it's really interesting to meet new people from all over the world. I would like to show you around in Nijmegen when I come back from travelling. I've lived here for almost five years now and love the city- it's very cosy.

PHILOSOPHY
Be yourself!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been having people over in Eindhoven before when I lived with my parents. Now I live in Nijmegen and would love to continue the couchsurfing! I've only once couchsurfed somewhere else (in Vietnam), but I'm sure there's many more times to come!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has been so great and I've met some of the best people. Always so great to hear everyones stories.
