About Me

I'm a musician. I play the modern and baroque oboe and the violin. From the Autumn I'm starting studying at the Royal Conservatoire in the Hague, playing historical oboes. I'm a writer also and an enthusiast of everything which is connected with the art, generally speaking. I love meeting new people, drinking a beer, coffee, talking and exploring new things. I'm a vegetarian girl, who loves to cook. I could live in the museum and I cannot imagine my life without music (I love many genres: classical, jazz, blues, funk, soul, rock, progressive rock, alternative rock, punk rock, heavy metal, some pop bands, and artists, also electronic music), paintings, architecture, sculpture, theatre, cinematography, photography... I really appreciate good food, wine, and beer. I love pretty stuff ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I really love meeting new people and because my friend uses it and she is absolutely in love with the couchserfing and I trust her :P What's more...well, traveling around the world and visiting other's houses is a kind of things I really like to do, especially that I have adored an interior design since J was a child. You know, interior design magazines, visiting IKEA 😂, playing The Sims (still very rarely!) 🙃, even trying to create an interior myself...this kind of stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think now it is my decision to study abroad, to go far away- leave my family, boyfriend and friends and to open a new chapter in my life.
Besides that- I do a lot of amazing vegetarian meals. You are kindly invited to taste them!
