About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live an super awesome, adventurous life and learn as much as I can about this world and all it's cultures.

ABOUT ME

At the moment I am studying waaaaaaay to much.... so I am happy with all the big and little adventures besides my books and lectures!

I love hanging out with friends, joke around and help others. At the moment I am in a kind of crisis about which sport I want to play.. I love soccer, but I want to try something new, any advice?

My big big passion is.... rapapapaaa... big surprise..... TRAVELLING! Although I don't like to move a lot, I love to just stay at one place and learn as much as I can about the culture and the way of life. Meet new people and do something useful, like volunteering, internships.. etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few years ago I started travelling on my own and some friends told me about CouchSurfing. It is a fantastic way of seeing the best part of a country. I met great people by CouchSurfing and learned a lot about habits and traditions. I wish I could give others this experience as well, but Groningen is not touristic at all... so it doesn't work out very well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years ago I stayed at a project in Chennai, a city in India, as a volunteer. What a journey, it was hard to see the poverty, the dirt and noise everywhere, the difficulties in life, but I also saw a lot of hapiness, colours and religion. I completely changed because of all this, in a good way (at least that's what I think :-p), and began to love India.

After my stay in India I realised I wanted to be a doctor and here I am.. still studying to be a great doctor :-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like cooking a lot, although I am not really good at it, so a typical Dutch or semi-typical Indian meal can be prepared :)

If you ever want to visit Holland, you are always welcome at my place!
