Hey! 29 year old from Amsterdam, that loves Afrobeat, discussions about politics and stumbling upon beautiful places :D

Some background: I worked for more than four years as a Human Rights researcher. In the past two years, I traveled parts of Asia and Latin America, before deciding to change careers and become a User Experience Designer. It's a very interesting field, and I can tell you why some doors are just stupidly designed. I am still super passionate about anything related to Sustainability, so my dream life would be a traveling UX Designer freelancing for NGO's and Social Enterprises. In the meantime, I am very happy to meet you and share our love for travel and meeting new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people, and hear about what they find interesting and what or who they care about. It makes the world a bigger and smaller place at the same time!

Interests

Always up for a good conversation about the state of the world, jam to some music together, or why Italian football is beautiful!
Back home I play in an Afrobeat band, and play lots of boardgames with friends

• politics
