About Me

CURRENT MISSION

leaving confusion and nonsense behind and performing my one and only noble function in time: move

ABOUT ME

I can be shy, I can be talkative, I can be funny, weird, crazy, quiet.. all depends on the moment and the company. Find out for yourself!

I have a huge passion for postcards and nailpolish. For as far as that tells you anything about my character :).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed couches in Spain, Andorra, Germany.. always had a lot of fun. Hosted some people too, and looking for expanding the experience anytime.

Interests

I am trying to be as open and non-judgemental as I can for any person that I meet. I like to get to know about different lifestyles and how things work out differently for everybody. Every once in a while I need to change the place where I live because things around me start to get familiar -it's not that I don't like my friends, or family, but I just need to change perspective every once in a while. I love adjusting to new circumstances.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a hard time remembering the names of movies, music, books that i like.. Lately i enjoyed this ones:
Movies: Her name was Sarah, Inception, Black Swan
Books: On the road, Boy in the striped pyjamas, the blue script, the solitude of prime numbers, The cathedral of the sea, The shadow of the wind -yup that's right i read a lot more than i watch tv.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not really in the 'big' moments for me. I love to be surprised about the little things -an amazing book I'm reading, a citation that REALLY fits, a view from the top of a mountain that takes my breath away, looking at a friend and realizing how much I care about him/her -things like that.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I could teach you Dutch.. maybe English. I could help you out with statistics or SPSS (very interesting, I know..) I could also try to help you with some sports -snowboarding and surfing.
Learn: Anything. I love to learn.
Share: Good conversations, wine, opinions -or maybe not, can be interesting too..

Countries I’ve Visited

Andorra, Germany, Portugal

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain
