Love People...Make a Difference...Travel the WORLD!

ABOUT ME

JEANETTE||Made to meet my Maker||Dutch||28||Fight for Love||Traveler at

PAST: I was born in Holland and lived there for almost 8 yrs. until my family and I emigrated to Canada in 95'. I lived there till I was 14 yrs. old and then I moved to the States in 01' and lived there till I was 16 yrs. old. I came back to Canada in 04' and have now lived here for 11 years.

CURRENTLY: I live in Aylmer, ON and work as a Shift Nurse.

WHAT I'M ABOUT: I am a BIG family orientated person and I love spending time with my niece and nephews; Evan(9), Aleah(8) & Julian(6).

TRAVEL: I enjoy living in Canada but I love to travel the world, seeing different places and meeting new people with different cultures and backgrounds. Since I was very young my family moved a lot so I am very used to traveling the world and seeing different sights and sounds.

PHILOSOPHY

Love is the crowning grace of humanity, the holiest right of the soul, the golden link which binds us to duty and truth, the redeeming principle that chiefly reconciles the heart to life, and is prophetic of eternal good.
~Petrarch

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking to use this website as a place to meet new people from all over the world and couch surf. I am not able to host but would love to in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had any couch surfing experiences but my friend has hosted several couch surfers and have all been really wonderful people.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

MUSIC: I love just about any type of music, even classic music if the mood is right. I think that music feeds the soul and enriches our lives with happiness and joy. It's a way for people to express internally perhaps what they can not verbalize externally thru beat or dance.

Favourite books of mine:
- Frank Warren's Post Secret Books
- Lovely Bones, Lucky & Almost Moon by Alice Sebold
- To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
- The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins
- The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series by Ann Brashares
- Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs
- Stolen Innocence: My Story of Growing Up in a Polygamous Sect, Becoming a Teenage Bride, and Breaking Free of Warren Jeffs by Elissa Wall
- The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon (one of my all-time favorites!)
- Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck

Movies: Too many to name right now but at the top of my head I would have to say An American Crime, Inception, The Reader and Inglourious Basterds

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

|| The day that my niece Aleah was born, I was able to see her enter into this world before my very own eyes. A moment that I will never forget.

|| I went on a Missions Trip to Vera Cruz, Mexico in February 2013 and was able to preach the Gospel of Hope, Peace & Love

|| Being Born Again February 25th, 2014; most amazing day of my life

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Anyone and everyone who is open to listen and learn. I am able to cross stitch and knit if you want to learn some. I am currently learning to sign American Sign Language and would love to teach it to anyone!
