Dutch girl that loves traveling, meeting new people and being in nature.

Living in my van with my dog that I rescued in Spain. Currently on a 6 week trip without my dog, he’s staying with my community in the Netherlands.

Plan to travel Costa Rica on a slow tempo. Will be joining the green residency from Momentom & besides that zero plans yet. Looking for spiritual & real connections, conscious dance, mantra gatherings, yoga etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to meet open people that can tell me more about their culture and country. Love to meet inspiring people, think about life different than the western rat race everyone seems to be in in Amsterdam (and probably in a lot of places in the world.

I found my peace with not taking part the life that I was 'supposed to have' after finishing my master degree.
For now I'm very happy just traveling slow, staying in new places for a longer period of time and every now and then get a job to make money. I can live very cheap and don't need much so this gives me a lot of time to be out of the 'structured life'.

Music, Movies, and Books

Xavier Rudd is my favorite music to listen when traveling or longing for travels

BOOK: ‘Solve for happy’, Mo Gawdatt. Best book for people trying to figure out life in a more analytical way.
Currently reading 'I am that' from Sri Nisargadatta, still struggling with it but getting through slowly ;)
Obviously have read all the 'cliché' travellers books; The power of now / the alchemist / into the wild.
Excited to hear about more books to read.

Not really a movie type of person. When someone chooses one and invites me yes, but wouldn't put on a movie in my free time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

White water rafting in Zimbabwe, probably the coolest experience. Worse but most memorable travel experience was getting robbed of my passport and debit card (credit card was already stolen two month before). My guesthouse decided to go for dinner and lots of drinks so I could drink away the shitty day. Crossing the street with the whole group and one for hit by a motorbike.. Jup that was me ;) after that day it made me realize how good people are, help from everywhere.

Teach, Learn, Share

Keen to learn anything. Super open minded and eager to hear and experience new things in life.

I’d love to share my journey and what I’m going through. I’d be more than happy to share thoughts.

I could teach some Dutch but don’t think anyone would have that on their list.

Show you how delicious vegan food can be <3

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun, enthusiasm for traveling, English language. Of course I can teach you some Dutch as well ;)
Cook vegan food, love for animals.
