My name is Janna Toepoel, and I am from the Netherlands. My greatest love in life are books. I like reading them, collecting them and once in a while I attempt to write them, although that never really works out.
Other things I like are playing the ukulele, sewing my own clothes and painting. And surprise surprise, ofcourse I love traveling as well. My favourite way of traveling is by bike: last year I rode my bike from Amsterdam to Paris and that was one of the best things I have ever done.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To really get to know the culture of the countries to which I am travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite book is, without doubt, Harry Potter. I must have read the series more than 20 times. When it comes to music I really like the 70's, with bands like Queen and the Beatles, Janis Joplin, the Rolling Stones and Simon and Garfunkel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ehmmm... I don´t know... Last year I moved to the UK in order to improve my English. I don´t know whether that is ´Amazing´, but I think it is closest to it of all the things I have done in my live.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, music from the ukulele, and an interest in almost anything. I would say I like to cook my host a Dutch meal, but I learned that most Dutch food is disgusting to non-dutch people. But maybe I could cook you a non-dutch meal :)
