ABOUT ME

I would love to discover the world and meet all different kinds of people and the best way to do that is to go stay with locals.

Interests

I have a hard time not sounding very cliché at every question but I'll give it a try anyway. I love spontaneous meetings at the supermarket or any place really. I love being blown away at a concert by a band I don't know or having a heated discussion about gender issues. I love learning from other people's perspectives on society or the Beatles or Trump or Thelma and Louise or bacon. I love being so scared at a horror movie that I have to watch a Disney movie afterwards. I love snorkeling, brunch, hibiscus tea, night swimming, fire, markets, spring, comfy pillows, narrow old streets, drinking wine at a terrace, cheese, mini-golf, absurd humor, ... BUT I don't love mornings... I'm working on that one.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's too hard to take this one seriously.. Sorry, you can ask me in person though.

Teach, Learn, Share

Shall we find out in person as well?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've been raised to be a very well mannered guest! Although I don't always seem to succeed on those difficult Monday mornings. But when on holiday those Mondays shouldn't be an issue. All days feel like Friday then!
