Hi, I'm Nienke and I'm 29 years old. In July 2016 I got my teaching degree for biology, so until recently I was working as a high school teacher in Den Bosch.
However, right now me and Tamara have left The Netherlands to make our dreams come true. We are driving all the way to Southeast Asia in our campervan and we hope to meet many new friends on the road.

Update: on December 21, 2019, we adopted a Turkish puppy. We call him Sparta and hè is travelling with us in our campervan.

IMPORTANT!
I don't have a permanent address, so I cannot host!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I loved all my travels! The most amazing though, is that I quit my job to follow my dreams and travel to SE Asia.

Teach, Learn, Share

Because of my Masters degree in Immunology I know a lot about the human body and all its illnesses. I am a Biology teacher, so I am able to explain things pretty well. I really love to teach English too!

I'd really like to learn more languages and to get better in the languages I already know (more or less).

In addition, we are carrying a lot of card and board games, which we love to play with you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter, stories, dreams, card games...
