CURRENT MISSION
Meet interesting people and share great stories with them!

ABOUT ME
I'm a very happy girl who likes to have fun, but can also be very serious. I generally try not to bother people too much. I do like to try a lot of new things and I'm open for new experiences. Keep meeting new people and experiencing new cultures is one of my goals! I see myself as really respectful towards others/other cultures, and I would never overstep someones personal boundaries.

I'm also very short (1.55m), 25 years old and love all stuff Asian, have a lot of hobbies (eg. violin/cello, climbing, snowboarding, diving) and I really like being around friends. Furthermore I really LOVE cooking and baking.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Stayed with 3 hosts while in Japan, it was such an amazing experience! And also a bit weird sometimes haha. Can tell you about that later!

For about 1.5 year I hosted people every day in my small apartment in Maastricht. It was crazy, but I learnt a lot.

Intereses

Travelling, culture, social activities, food, sports, fashion, advertising, animation, school, photography, gaming.. (try to win in Mario Kart 64!!), computers, technology, etc. I am also climbing 3 times a week indoors (Vorstieg) together with my boyfriend. Next to this, I like driving around on my motorbike when the sun is out :-)

Algo increíble que he hecho

Went to Peru for 3 weeks and slept only in tents, ate an omelette with rice every day (vegetarian.. they don't know what else to cook) and made it back home alive. Five hours of walking all day while carrying luggage and also being very sick at the same time is not cool.. haha. Lost 10 kg. and couldn't even walk anymore at the end of the trip.

I managed to graduate Cum Laude for my studies in Communication Science (MSc.)! I never thought I could do it, and felt like giving up.. but persistance is key!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you... random things? I'm the queen of basic facts, so will be great at parties or as entertainment.. and to win Trivial Pursuit :D But seriously, I know a lot of things that are not really coherent. So if you want to learn German/English/Dutch/Javascript/Animating a movie/about Architecture/Photography (as a hobby)/all other random stuff.. ask me!

Learning... also everything! Especially love languages, accents, cultural activities, traditions.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I live in an apartment in the centre of Maastricht: centrally located, clean and cosy!

I expect you to be clean, quiet and respectful. If not, I have the right to kick you out. And trust me, I will do that. ;)

NOTE: PLEASE SEND ME A REQUEST WELL IN ADVANCE, OR AT LEAST TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PLANS/BACKGROUND. I DO NOT HOST PEOPLE WHO HAVE A BLANK PROFILE.
