CURRENT MISSION

Living in the now, seeing as much of the world as I can, meeting interesting people, learning from others and singing with my heart..

ABOUT ME

I love traveling; the feeling of total freedom and adventure. Probably the best thing of traveling is meeting so many wonderful people!
I grew up in the south of Holland and I am living there at the moment. I am currently working with people with a mental disability.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to become fully aware of life and who I am, live in the now and accept life as it is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I very much enjoy meeting other people/cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I haven't hosted anyone yet (I'm not living in the most touristic spot in the Netherlands). I did meet quite a few people through couchsurfing though and it has been great.

Interests

Although I didn't go to artschool (I studied psychology), these last few years I have been focusing a lot on painting. Besides that I like to sing and play guitar.
I can be a bit obsessive when it comes to something I am passionate about.
