About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying my freedom before starting my first job in October 2020. Planning to meet interesting people and learn about their cultures, learn new stuff (e.g. french, surfing) and discover new places.

ABOUT ME

I am a social, outgoing and open-minded person! I enjoy having good meals, good conversations, doing sports, going to festivals and meeting new people and experience adventures in general! I love to discover new places and meet local people. I have lived in several countries (e.g. Peru, Chile, Spain) outside of the Netherlands for voluntary projects and study experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Live begins at the end of your comfort-zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I am going to any sort of location I would like to meet locals to have a better experience, in return I also offer others a couch/place to sleep, of course also to get to know people and help them in having a good time in the Netherlands! I hosted people two times, one Italian and one Chilean. Both experiences were really great and I am still in contact with them! At the moment I am unfortunately not able to host people because I am not living in Rotterdam at the moment, when I'll return, I will definitely host people again and let them experience a more typical stay in the Netherlands.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I experienced some couchsurfing meetings and also some friends throughout couchsurfing in Seville, last year. I am so glad I subscribed, because of couchsurfing I made some friends for life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My trip to Spain and South-America in 2012/2013 of 6 months on my own. It was the best thing I ever did and it really changed me in a positive way.

Studying in Santiago de Chile in 2016

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you Dutch, English and some Spanish, have nice conversations, make some nice food

What I Can Share with Hosts
