About Me

**
My boyfriend and I will be too busy rounding up our internship/thesis until October. Already looking forward to hosting again when we're done :)

CURRENT MISSION

Looking for a group of people to practice acroyoga with. Looking for people who would like to cook vegetarian meals together (or for me to cook for them :p).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I recently moved to Zeist with my boyfriend Erik. Zeist is pretty close to Utrecht but in itself it's a lovely city as well! I would love to host people again, since we finally have some space to share :) It doesn't matter who you are, what you do or what you're in the Netherlands for - as long as you write a bit about yourself in your message and explain why you'd like to stay with us. I'd love to show you around!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed couches on a couple of trips but I hope many more couchsurfing trips will follow! I surfed with my friend Steven in Annecy, Lyon, Geneva and Kraków and on my own in Porto and Lisbon. That's all long ago now, I've mostly joined meetings the last couple of years since I don't have much time to travel unfortunately :( Hosting and meeting new people would be a great way to 'travel' while staying here.

Interests

I love acroyoga, trying out different sports, playing boardgames (I organize board game nights sometimes), urban adventures, bike trips, walks in the forest, connecting with people.

Passionate discussions.
Being challenged.
Learning about things I did not even know they existed.
Everything you love to talk about.

  • cooking
  • vegetarian
  • traveling
  • cycling
  • sports
  • languages
  • neuroscience

Music, Movies, and Books

Post-rock and folksy music. Mind fuck movies. Documentaries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw two lions making baby lions on the road in the Kruger park, South Africa.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages and sure I could teach you some Dutch if you're interested :) I'd like to improve my Swedish! I could tell you something about Neuroscience if you like. I could teach some acroyoga. We can cook something vegetarian together (please teach me your favorite recipe!).
