Hi! My name is Roos 🌹nice to meet you.

I have a curious and open mindset because I think you can only judge something once you have tried it. For this reason I am experienced in many different areas such as art, farming, hospitality and cooking. Currently I combine my illustration and design business with travelling. Every journey I feel more grateful to be able to live this way. I like to stay busy and get the most out of my day. In my free time I enjoy hiking, reading, crochet and cooking. I also make pottery and other ceramic work.

I believe in serendipity and am looking forward to the new encounters that come my way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What makes life worthwhile for me is having meaningful experiences and learning some new things on the way. By traveling and meeting people I intend to make those goals my reality.

Music, Movies, and Books

Techno and hip-hop are my favourite but depending on the mood I can listen to anything. I love comedies and enjoy reading books about human behaviour.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking through Japan and wild camping on the way. There's no feeling quite like waking up with the view of the Japanese nature and culture.
