ABOUT ME
I'm interested in meeting new people from different cultures, share stories and experiences and get to know different views on the world. I love music, movies, art, literature and just about any cuisine (but that's also just an excuse to eat a lot).
I moved from The Netherlands to Berlin in 2015 and I'm still discovering and experiencing new things here, which is really great.
In 2017 I will travel to Brazil!
PHILOSOPHY
Do the things that make you happy, smile, and don't worry too much about the future.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've met a lot of great people through CS, by surfing, hosting and meetings. I surfed in Slovenia, Cuba and California and hosted when I was living in The Netherlands. I also hosted people I've met during travelling and showed them my city/country, which was a lot of fun.
Interests
Addicted to music. Travelling. Books! Having fun with my friends. Meeting new people.
Music, Movies, and Books
Film: Intouchables, drive, the perks of being a wallflower, donnie darko, inception, into the wild, o brother where are thou, and so so so many others.
Music: Could be really anything, from indiepop to reggae, all kinds of electronic music, you name it.
Book: 1984, The Alchemist, Goodbye to Berlin, The Hare with the Amber eyes, etc. etc. etc.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Seen: The landscapes of Chile; the desert, the mountains and the El Tatio Geysers near San Pedro de Atacama.
Done: Canopy in forrest in Costa Rica. Really amazing to feel like your flying through the high trees and at the end to jump down like some sort of bungee jump.
