Overview
About Me
I'm a very mind-opened, flexible and curious person searching always for new adventures, experiences, beautiful places and good meetings. I love to explore, I love to get to know new things. I don't really like the usual mainstream way but always try to find the more authentic/alternative way.
I try to be a very mindful person as I think a world with mindful people would be a much better place :)
I also try to always live in the moment, to not think to much and just let things come in my way - it has been working amazingly for me so far and made me the person I am today.
I'm studying liberal arts and sciences in the Netherlands. Currently I am on my exchange semester in Hong Kong.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love the way I get to experience a new place when I do couchsurfing. I feel like I get a true grasp of what life in that place is really like. Often the entire hotel/hostel thing is so disconnected from the actual place, only based on comsumerism, partying, tourguides, etc...
Through couchsurfing I meet amazing like-minded people, I get to involve in beautiful cultural exchange, get to know new people, hear new stories, see how people live in that city/country and much more.
Interests
Getting to know new cultures and places is my favorite thing in life. I will never get tired of it! So I'm kind of a travel addict. I love both, urban explorations and urban dynamics but also the beauty of mother nature. In terms of music I am basically open for anything as long as it is not mainstream (pop) music - really can't stand that. My favorites are certainly 60/70s rock and reggae but also a good technoparty if I can find one. I love creativity in all directions and expression. Personally I'm doing photography.
Another passion of mine is sustainability as this is one big part of my study but also relates to my life philosophy.

Music, Movies, and Books
Reggae speak to my soul most. 60s/70s rock gets me too. As far as movies go, I'm not a real movie watcher. I don't even know most classics even though I do really enjoy watching a good movie. Most of the time though I prefer going outside doing something instead of starring at a screen. But I love everything from Wes Anderson!
