About Me

CURRENT MISSION

be myself, be happy, love, laugh, learn, live

ABOUT ME

Open-minded, adventurous, optimistic, fun-loving. I get itchy feet when in one place for too long, I love traveling and the great opportunity that comes with it of getting a glimpse into other peoples' lives and cultures. Social and always up for an adventure, a laugh and a good chat, sometimes over a beer, and am happy when around good friends. My passion is the water, put me under the surface in diving equipment and I'll be happy. I study biology out of the wish to better understand this beautiful world we are living in and with this knowledge help to conserve it.

PHILOSOPHY

live your dreams. A bit of self-confidence and trust in yourself will usually carry you much further than you can imagine. In the end, it is important how many people u made smile in your life. Trying to change the world a little bit towards the better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I didn't have the opportunity so far of hosting people myself, would love to do that as soon as I have proper space. Now that I stay in Groningen I have a room with some opportunity to put an air mattress - so it's not the most spacious place, but I'll be good fun to be around =)
