I'm currently living in Amsterdam studying, but love to meet new people. Practically always going through an existential crises, but i don't see that as a bad thing necessarily. I'm always up for a chat, whether it's very personal, about the universe, or a silly conversation for a good laugh (I can be pretty goofy at times). I'm very easy going and enjoy helping out in the kitchen (whether it's cooking or cleaning or both!). Ultimately I enjoy connecting with people and will be respectful to you and your home :) Some activities I like are reading, yoga, playing board and card games, anything sports related as long as my hip doesn't start hurting too much (I've had three hip surgeries :0) I'm also generally a very open person who's comfortable with sharing and also listening to people open up :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel but don't like the feeling of being a "tourist". I've neveer couchsurfed before. but I'd imagine it's the best way to meet people while traveling and get to know places around the world!
