About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Become aware of all the beautiful places, people and things in life

ABOUT ME

I can be as spontaneous as walking around the city and just see where I end up and I'm as timid by spending lot's of time on my own. I'm as active by getting up early to do yoga or some running on the beach and I'm as lazy as sitting in bed all day watching series. I'm as crazy by performing weird dances when I go out and I'm as serious by reading books that inspire me to look at life differently. I'm as spiritual by believing that there's more to life then coincidences and I'm as rational by believing that you're always responsible for your own choices.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep it simple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I sometimes use couch surfing while traveling, but only if I feel like there are some common grounds with the host. I don't use couch surfing as a free space to stay. I have hosted someone once, but due to my busy schedule and lack of space I'm not hosting at the moment. I have visited lot's of CS meetings in my own town where I've met most of my friends.

Interests

You can wake me up in the middle of the night for pancakes, yoga on the beach, walking the dog or babysitting your little niece. These acitivities include my four passions in life: good food, nature, animals and kids.
As a social entrepreneur I work at the moment as a project facilitator and community builder to make The Hague a more social and sustainable place where we can work to gather towards sustainable city living with respect for nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me it's all about taking care of each other, don't worry too much, live a simple life and enjoy nature.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy meeting people who show me a different aspect of life, an aspect that I haven't found out about yet. That could be million different things like: jobs, music, food, movies, life-experiences, travels, jokes, just bring it on! Hopefully I can show you some new stuff as well!
