About Me

So far the world is my playground. I am young, and spontaneous with an adventure in mind. This is my motivation for traveling:

"All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is the best way to meet the inner and finer details of a country or culture. I love to talk to people from different backgrounds and cultures and dont mind sharing my experiences with who ever is interested.

Interests

I am an experienced salsa dancer.

Exploring different languages (when traveling it plays a very big role)

Walking or cycling the landscapes of other countries

Reading books ( fact or fiction but no lovey dovey stuff really), reading up about a country in explorer/travel books etc.

Keeping a visual diary:
my travels include writing in my diary and with that photography and things of sentiment I can paste in my diary or keep in my collective box.

Cooking! Love to learn about new dishes
