CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying life!

ABOUT ME

I always feel there is something going on in the world that I should be experiencing.

PHILOSOPHY

"Throw your heart over the fence and the rest will follow." (travelquote)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm lucky to have a nice apartment in the center of The Hague. It is one of the most extraordinary cities in Holland. Not just because it is our government city, but also because of its many monuments, historic districts and its location near the beautiful North Sea coastline. I like to show people around and also meet new people from different countries and cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had great moments surfing some couches in different countries.

Interests

Everything that makes me happy and gives me energy.
