Hi! I am Paulien and I live with my beautifull cat in the village Houten, next to Utrecht. Most of the time I spend in office, working as a developer. After work I like to spend my time doing sports, gaming or Netflix. In the weekends I love to go out and see new places, eat at new places or enjoy my time at a festival.

On holidays I love to go to places where I never been before, talk to people to really get to know the culture. Also like to try food that I never had before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and to see how people actually live in a country (being in a hotel is really different than staying at someones house obviously).
