CURRENT MISSION

Getting the most out of my life at this moment :)

ABOUT ME

Hi there!

I'm a Dutchie who loves to experience new cultures, meet new people, see all the stunning views our earth has to offer. I worked as a psychologist and am taking a break at the moment to travel around the world and working freelance as a social worker with people who struggle with mental health issues.
I only host when I feel I have the time and energy to spend some time with my guest, as I like to show my guests around.

Something about me: I'm a curious, genuine and straightforward person.
Also I'm a very gullible, helpful,impulsive person and I love sarcasm.

I only host 1 person at a time. For this reason I am also quite selective with the people I host. I live in a very quiet area in nature, close to the forest, sanddunes and fields. It is a good spot to go for walks or mountainbike or just to relax a bit, making a fire in the garden and enjoy the birds. So if you are looking for a place like this during your travels and not just want to visit Amsterdam from my place, you are very welcome.
When you write to me, please make the effort to introduce yourself a bit and explain why you want to stay with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them. So go out and start creating!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many.. From dogsledding in Lapland to Saltflats in Bolivia and amazing Iguassu Falls in Brasil to name a few.. It's better to exchange these stories instead of writing a whole essay here ;)
