Hello you!

I used to have a whole story on here, but nowadays we life in 2016 so I'll just give you my Facebook details: Look for Linda Elvira Hofhuis on FB ;-)

But, I don't wanna come across to lazy, so here we go anyways: Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Linda and I am a 25-year old weirdo living in Harderwijk, Netherlands. I love doing yoga, crossfit, meet new people, eat, hike, eat, be in nature, do fun stuff and go on adventures.

I have a cat, Siem, that I have a love/hate relationship with :'-) Well mostly its love but he can be a bit,... Too enthousiastic sometimes (my legs are full of scratches). but don't let it scare you; he's a real sweet heart.

I'm Always working on getting the most out of my life and enjoying every day as it is a gift.. Now I'm working on getting my licence for driving a motorbike. I just finished a course in photography and next I would love to learn spanish. So if you can teach me a bit of Spanish, feed me good healthy food, want to hang out and talk for hours about life and/or go on crazy roadtrips/adventures with me, give me a shout ;-)

With love,
Linda

PHILOSOPHY

Think outside, no box required.

Remember all those things you've always wanted to do? You should go do them.

Make someone smile whenever you can, you never know how much of a difference you could make in their life at that moment.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything.

It's never too late to change your life

What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger

Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.

People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they are lost.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Be kind to unkind people, they need it the most.

I like philosophers like Aristotle, Einstein, Foucault, the Dalai Lama

Countries I traveled: Most of Europe, China, Nepal, Thailand, Laos, Malaisia

Next on my list: Ireland! And maybe Scotland. And Sweden/Finland. And South America... And Canada... Haha, yea, so I could go on for quite some time. For now first up is most likely Ireland (just because I love the people)and England (as I am going to visit a friend in England)
