About Me

CURRENT MISSION

keeping things extra-ordinary.

ABOUT ME

hello life and livers, (joke intended, I greet your livers)

I love being on the move, not staying in one place, being on the road, hitchhiking, sitting in the car watching the landscape change. Or hiking through nature with my house on my back and feeling peaceful and free. I utterly believe that everything is always going to be alright. Happiness.
Somewhere in the future I plan to live in the middle of nowhere in a tent/igloo/yurt for the rest of my life, grow my own food and escape from society. But for now, I'll grow a bit more, collect knowledge and collect people.
Life is one big adventure and I try to say yes to as many things as possible.
Trying to keep things extra-ordinary. And after that we will see what will happen. Alpaca-farms, moon-landings, joining the circus, everything is possible.

PHILOSOPHY

"It's never too late to have a happy childhood, and age only matters if you're a cheese."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During my time in Turkey, me and my boyfriend at the time hosted loads and loads of people.
It makes me really happy to share my house and food and stories with other people.

one elevator
one kitchen
two trucks

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some card games, languages, juggling, solving the Rubik's Cube, baking cakes.
