Hi there! I’m Janice, a Dutch Caribbean global citizen on a mission to raise the vibration of love on Earth 🌍.

Born and raised in Curaçao, the most beautiful island in the Dutch Caribbean 🇨🇼, I'm currently living in the Netherlands 🇳🇱. Passionate about life and laughter, I believe in the healing power of a good laugh 😂 and its ability to make us breathe and enjoy the moment. I speak Papiamentu, Dutch, English, and Spanish. Understand a little bit of Portuguese, Italian, and French.

I love to keep my inner child alive, be around people with purpose 👶❤️ and learn from others. My family means the world to me, and I’m deeply grateful for my ancestors' sacrifices, which enabled my accomplishments today 👵👴.

Professionally, I wear many hats: inspirational speaker, healthy water specialist, stand-up comedian 🎤, realtor 🏡, marketing expert 📈, graphic designer 🎨, business analyst 📊, hospitality cleaning specialist 🏨, banker 💰, tourism enthusiast ✈️, and relocation officer. I’ve pretty much worked in almost every sector and lived many lives within one lifetime!

I’m a self-educator 📚, a flexitarian foodie 🍲, and food critic who finds rest and peace in a spotless clean home 🧼. I love speed cars 🚗, dancing 💃, stand-up comedy 🎭, musicals 🎶, and walks in nature 🌿. I also enjoy all types of water activities, except diving 🌊.

Easy to talk to and drawn to happy people, I’m here on Couchsurfing to make traveling more accessible and fun, especially during tough economic times. I am excited to make new friends who share the same dreams and knowledge 😊.

Let’s connect, laugh, and share adventures!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I've grown older, I've realized I have two hands—one to help myself and the other to help others 🙌. I'm on Couchsurfing to make travel more accessible and enjoyable. It's a great way to make new friends 🤝, share dreams 💭, and exchange knowledge 📚.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Welcome to my home! Here’s what you’ll find to make your stay comfortable:

Safe and Secure 🏢🔒: You’ll feel safe staying here on the 8th floor in a very nice upscale neighborhood.

Clean and tidy space 🧼✨ – everything is well-maintained.

Sleeping Setup 🛌 in the livingroom: Although I don’t have a guest bed yet, I’ve arranged a comfortable alternative using stacked yoga mats, a cozy single duvet, and an extra blanket for warmth (see pictures), two ergonomic pillows, and a decorative pillow for added comfort.

Special Amenities
Filtered Alkaline Water 💧: Enjoy unlimited clean, alkaline, and mineral-rich water to keep you refreshed! It’s especially beneficial for athletes, travelers needing hydration after a long flight, or anyone needing a healthful boost.

Just a Few House Requests:

A) In the Bathroom 🚽:

1. Please keep the toilet seat down.

2. The toilet brush contains soap inside—just squeeze and brush for easy cleaning.

3. Remember to look back, flush, brush, and flush again.

B) Trash 🗑️: Please help by throwing out the small kitchen trash daily.

Optional Gift 🎁
If you'd like to bring a small gift, I always seem to run out of eggs 🥚 and toilet paper 🧻.
And if you’re feeling extra generous, my favorite drink is Vitamalt! 🍻

Looking forward to hosting you for a clean, comfortable, safe and relaxed stay! 😊
