ABOUT ME

Hello!
My name is Katty, I'm 19 (well, in august I will turn 20) and I live and study ('general cultural sciences', literally translated, which is about culture in the broadest sense of the word) in Amsterdam.

I love having nice and long conversations, drinking coffee in small cafés, walking around the beach, lying in the grass, drinking fresh tea, watching movies, baking giant cookies (or muffins or just a big cake), dancing-on-nice-music (although bad music can be fun too), sometimes play the guitar (that is, when I find myself motivated), reading lots of books and hoping that once I can experience the things described, making pictures of not-so-important things and just having a good time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm really keen on meeting new people and I would love to show you around Amsterdam, but since my room is so tiny and I don't have an extra mattress I can't offer a couch/place to sleep. However if you're up for a coffee or a walk or whatever, I would like to show you around!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never couchsurfed before nor did I meet with someone directly via my couchsurfingaccount. I did meet up with couchsurfers of friends and I liked the international mixture of all the people.
