Hi there! I am Nienke and I love life and especially friends, family, festivals (went to Sziget, Governorsball, Lowlands, Pinkpop, Glastonbury and Burning Man), great coffee, traveling, dancing, drunk nights, animals, foreign food, sports (I played in a soccer team, I love fitness and sometimes I go horsebackriding at my parents in the North of the Netherlands), getting to know other cultures, I have a passion for people development and learning, I love being creative, drawing, reading, meeting new people, eating unknown food, surfing in the summer etc.

Friends and colleagues describe me as: Open, honest, loyal, energetic, driven and an activator.

In 2018 my biggest has been fulfilled: together with my boyfriend Peter Swart I traveled the world for a year, starting in August 2018 with Burning Man festival in Nevada.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Several reasons:
- To meet local people from different cultures
- To taste every cuisine
- To learn from others in their vision on the world
- To have unexpected experiences and conversations
