Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Currently in the process of a big new adventure: moved to southern Chile (Patagonia) to start a campsite and create an off-grid type lovely spot for me, my husband and 2 year-old daughter Esmeralda, and whoever comes on our path!
Important: we have no internet and are about an hour's drive away from coyhaique. It is possible we don't see your request on time, apologies for that in advance!!
see the world, meet new people, enjoy life to the fullest, it's too short too be lived out without adventure and great people...
ABOUT ME
I'm a very impulsive person, I just get up and go, and I love being on the road.
But opposed to that I also love working on private projects, like Making clothes, painting, drawing, writing, playing guitar.
I also love reading, having a cosy night watching a good film in the sofa, with a steaming cup of earl grey tea...
Cosiness. I love cosyness and being able to chill out with nice people.
I am totally into music, my parents were musicians, writers, and totally cool...
PHILOSOPHY
Better a bit naieve than paralysed by fear.
(quote by my mother)
What I meant to say is that you can't sit at home your whole life, afraid to go out because you know what could all happen. you have to have a little faith in life, and the goodness of people. And i AM aware of how naieve that sounds... :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Hosting, surfing, and going out for coffees :D
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's so much fun hosting, had a wonderful time with some of them, making music, hanging out, seeing the town...
and couchsurfing is really fantastic to stay with local people in places you know nothing of, and become familiar with it!!
Ps: A lot of my references stayed on my ex-partner's account, sadly, so I don't have that many on here.

Music, Movies, and Books
Books: totally into Christopher Brookmyre, funny Scottish writer, for the moment.
Music. I'm so not going to write it all down. I can appreciate anything really, if it has or else: creative input, rythm, nostalgia, or humor... Good humor that is. :) and some others too.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Jordan/Israel/Egypt. very short trip, but truly amazing. I went by my self, a bit of a soul-searching trip, i don't know.. but it's really hard to put into a couple of sentences why... so, sorry, I won't. If you really care to know, ask me:)
Northern Norway in winter and all that comes with it...
Teach, Learn, Share
Well, I am a teacher ;)
I don't know, I know quite a bit about art, Photography, literature. But it's the practical languages I teach for the moment, English, Dutch and French. But I'm a little know-it-all, so I'm sure that whatever you want to know and I can tell you, I will...!

Music, cooking, travel stories, art, hiking, coffee, positivity...
