ABOUT ME

My name is Myrthe Heijnen. I am 25 years old and live in the Netherlands. I grew up in a very small village in the south of the Netherlands and I guess it's because of that I love discovering the world: the spirit of exploring.

I like walking or cycling around in an unknown city or town, make myself feel at home anywhere and most of all meeting people! To exchange cultures, sharing stories, learning from eachother and have fun as much as possible!

I like to be in the outdoors, to do sports like running and skiing, and like to go on adventures.
I am a positive thinker.
I love meeting new people, making new friends and learn about different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

If your dream doesn't scare you, it is not big enough
