About Me

CURRENT MISSION

exploring the world one couch at a time!

ABOUT ME

I finished school 4years ago and went overseas for the first time in 2010. In the year that I was there I was introduced to a whole new exciting world; a world of traveling, meeting people, seeing places, eating different foods and experiencing a part of other cultures. I was hooked from the start! I had the best year of my life and I'm definetely planning to continue travelling once Im done studying...unfortuanetly I still have another 4 years to go, but im planning to do my last 2 years as a master student in Holland...AND THEN: the world will be my oyster!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in one simple philosophy: You will never achieve what you never begin.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment Im only a surfer. I definetly want to host people, just got to invest in a proper couch first!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have CS in Antwerp and Florence..and both experiences where unique and awesome in their own way!

Interests

Im a girl who likes to party, meet people to party with and go to places to party at!

I am also very outgoing so in the day I like a little adventure! Ive done some crazy things which keeps me alive and out there. I enjoy canoeing, horseback riding, quadbiking, hiking and skiing! I also have a calm side and enjoy reading, cooking, watching marathons of series or just tanning on the beach!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: as long as it has a good storyline then I'd say I like a bit of everything from comedies to action thrillers!

Music: Coldplay, The Kooks, Johnathan Jeremiah, dire straights Zero 7, Moby, Robby Williams (oh yeah!), Ben Howard...then also some louder sound: pendulum, electro, house, miike snow, zebra and giraffe...and the list goes on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: I saw, touched and tasted SNOW for the very first time in my life in 2010! Rome's Colloseum...just one word: ONGELOOFLIK!

Done: Ive Bungy jumped twice off of the worlds highest bungy bridge (BlouKranz Bridge) when I was 14! That was pure AWESOME-NESS!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a bit of my home language: Afrikaans!
And Im a Microbiologist...so my nerdy side comes out sometimes and I'll be blabbering about how fascinating the world of microbes are!
