Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel the world, spreading my smile and positive attitude!
ABOUT ME
I love dancing! All of the dances, but mostly Cuban Salsa, Lindy Hop or Boogie Woogie. I've been doing this for nearly ten years now, and I can not imagine how my life would be like without dancing. The person I am now, has alot to do with me discovering dancing all them years ago!
Another corner stone of my life is my passion for historical clothing. Fairly new to this area, since I thought my passion was fashion at first. But then I went to study pattern construction at a school and they had another education called: Costume and historical clothing and I got in touch with the teachers there. So from that moment on I've been dreaming about a job in London, at some theater or, maybe baby, BBC :D
So as you can read, I'm a very creative (and talkative ;) person. I always have to have something to do, or else I get bored rather easily. If I'm not dancing or sewing I'm reading a book, drawing, fixing my friend's clothes, going snowboarding (if the time of the year is right), cooking or knitting. Other cue words: Loud, talkative, smiley, tall, outgoing, NOT shy, spontaneous.
PHILOSOPHY
One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself, Golden Rule.
One should not treat others in ways that one would not like to be treated, Silver Rule.
Courage is about being scared shitless but saddeling up anyways. -John Wayne-
This is what you have, make the best of it! -Unknown-
You don't look good crying. -Dad- ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here to meet new people of course. Yes you can go to a new country and do the normal tourist things: hotel, tourist places, souvenirs etc. But I like to know how the locals live, and get to know the place and people authentically. When you go as a tourist you get a somewhat glorified impression of the place, I like the reality.

Music, Movies, and Books
Give me a book, movie or tv show about ghosts, pirates, vampires, zombies (can't watch them though), and every other supernatural being and I'm happy! I mostly listen to Michael Jackson, salsa music and swing music.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I can't just settle on one:
When I where at this Dude Ranch in Wyoming, we saw some antilopes in the distance. I was joking around saying: let's chase them! The leader of my group then saying: Okay! We started of chasing those two antilopes, and when we got over the hill it turns out, those two antilopes was just scouts watching over their flok. So it ended up as a chase for a whole flok of antilopes! AMAZING! :D (chase was on horseback, no hunting involved)
When in Greece, or to be more precise on the island of Naxos, me and a friend befriended the beach boys aka the people working on the beach. They asked if we would join them for a boat ride and watch the sun set behind the island. And we said yes, it is an epic memory. Now when I'm telling it I'm left with the feeling: did this happen to me? It seems like something out of a movie.
