My name is Renate and i've always been very curious about other cultures and life styles. I am a peoples person and where i grew up was a very touristy place near the sea in the Netherlands. Growing up there took care to have a resume filled with jobs in bars, restaurants and hotels. Also did domestic work for older people and at the moment I work as a au pair at a few different families which involved taking care of the kids, cooking and help them with their homework. I live in Rotterdam now, but lived in Utrecht and The Hague as well. In my free time i like to do some longboarding, run, grow and know about different kinds of plants and one of my hobby's is to learn about the food system. I love to cook delicious food but in the same time be conscious about health, animal suffering and the environment. I have changed my eating habbits to almost a completely vegan diet and i've put my intellectual focus on this subject and about how to change the foodsystem. To make a long story short: Basicly my jobs where always about making people happy. That is what i love to do. I am spontanious, responsible, flexible and filled with energy. I am a enthousiastic person and enjoy the little things in life.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

As I said I'm very curious about other cultures and lifestyles. I would like to see more of the world and I collect experiences. Couch surfing will definitely make these things easier.
