About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to enjoy life!

ABOUT ME
I am a social person who likes hanging out with friends and relax. I enjoy al sorts of music and activities like sailing, hiking, reading, knitting, going to concerts etc..
Love to meet new people and see new places.
I don't own a big house with a spare bedroom, but my living room is available :) It's only a 10 min walk to the centre of Groningen

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and meeting new people. Seeing new places and making new friends along the way.

Interests

Arts & Culture, i love to visit little, quirky museums. I like going to concerts and festivals. Al sorts of music; ska to punk or indie to drum 'n bass and everyhing in between.
I am also someone who loves to watch movies, whether it's at the movietheater or at home (although i don't own a television).
Besides al things arty-farty i also like the outdoors, going on hikes, camping and sailing.

Although i am not a materialistic person at al...parting with my old fashioned record player might be a problem, let's just hope dat won' t ever have to happen.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Moonlight Kingdom, Song of the Sea, Borgman, and many ohters

Books: Yes please! I am a avid reader. All sorts of books, but i have a weak spot for the fantasy genre, gotta love Terry Pratchett :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I felt a bit bored in college i decided to just pack my bags and live in India for an entire year. Starting out as a volunteer at a really shady place, but ended up at an amazing NGO (Prepare, currently running the Santhi Nilayam HIV Care and Counseling Center). I have learned so many thing about myself and others and got to meet some amazing people.

Teach, Learn, Share

Not really sure what i can teach, learn, share.. I can offer to cook you a (vegetarian) meal, maybe teach you some Dutch. We'll figure something out along the way!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I promise i will bring you some Stroopwafels if you are willing to host me.
