Hi there!
My name is Joyce, I'm a visual artist currently living in Nieuwegein. I like crochet, knitting, beer, cats and travelling. As a hobby I collect taxidermy and bones (roadkill and found animals only tho, no hunting) and I play the saxophone in a local big band.
Since it's close to impossible to make a living from just making art, I also design crochet patterns which can be found all around the web.

More about my art projects can be found here: www.j-o-y-c-e.com

-I used to have a couchsurfing profile for years but it disappeared somehow... hence the new profile-

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I like helping people out who are looking for a place to stay and I love to meet new people. Also I love to travel and since I'm forever on a budget because of my occupation, couchsurfing comes in handy.

Música, películas y libros

Music: anything good, basically. Metal, the heavier kinds of metal, deep dark indie, classical music from the 20th century, techno, deep house... but also modern jazz and I can also enjoy a nice soundscape.

I mostly read non-fictional books about politics, sociology, psychology, history and books about countries that are very different than my own.

I really like a decent horror or thriller movie, art house films and documentaries.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I stayed awake for almost 48 hours for an art project. Never gonna do that again, that's for sure...

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you how to knit or crochet, how to sew, how to mend your clothes and how to make an amazing lasagna.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

If my schedule permits I can show you around in Utrecht. If you're an artist as well or interested in contemporary art we could do a gallery and museum tour. :)
