Hi, my name is Marijn, I am 32 years and from Amsterdam and partly living in New York.
I love to travel and meet people. I do have my own business, visualising the source by making art and design.
My life motto is; grow differently together, this is also what I realise in my design projects.

As a guest I am very flexible and social, also independent and easily finding my way around.
Usually I also work during trips and love to walk a lot and sharing dinner with the people I meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In general I travel by staying over at friends their places, who mostly also stay over with me in Amsterdam or New York. Staying with people I know is so amazing and full inspiration. Recently in Japan I stayed with friends in Kobe, Yame and Tokyo and even stayed with a monk near Okayama.
As you can see, this is my first time couch surfing! Very exiting :-)
