Overview
About Me
Hi there! 👋🏽 I’m Nina, a born and raised Dutchie. In April 2018 I left Holland to start living and working in Australia for at least a year. During my time in Australia I've been out and about, worked as a equine trainer and have seen different places. It has been such a good experience! I've met and travelled around the world a bit and met a lot of awesome other couchsurfers! All the amazing in-depth conversations has enriched me ginormously!
After 3 years I’ve been on the road again, traveling in Southern Africa, Thailand and back to Australia. Living in the moment, taking it day by day, focusing on my happiness and tranquility. I am a slow budget (but with a bit of comfort 😉) traveler with a love for (trail)running and hiking in nature. During my travels I love to check out food places for vegan and/or Whole Foods.
Soon I'll be on the road again, off to Asia.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to meet like minded travelers and locals, really get to know them, have in-depth conversations and visit places I'd never visit if I'd be in a town as a tourist. The hidden gems are the best!

Music, Movies, and Books
I love every type of music with the right melody. I'm quite lyrical and like to singalong (be prepared if we end doing a little roadtrip). I like reading books or articles about neuroscientifical or healthy food stuff, but also fancy a novel.
