About Me

ABOUT ME

As most of us, I love travelling and wish I had more time to do so. When I can't be on the road, I still enjoy meeting new people; different cultures, different languages, different stories. So next to the obvious, I also love music (yes, I'm secretly in love with my piano Frank and guitar Henk) photography, painting, animals, food, wine... Besides nurturing those things, I work for film- and theaterfestivals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am really enjoying meeting couchsurfers in the Netherlands; being a tourist in my own country is awesome :)

Interests

Okay, just a few things: music, photography, art, museums, books, lying in the grass watching clouds, the smell of rain, campfires, oceans, beach walks, heaps of tea, cheese, music festivals, theatre, animals, long dinners with good wine...
