Hellow everybody,

I'm Rosanna, 27 years of age from the south of the Netherlands.

I have completed 'Painting specialist, Restoration/ Decoration' In Boxtel, Netherlands and 'Restoration and Conservation of Paintings' in Anderlecht Belgium (just underneath Brussels). I love Nature, Hiking, Animals, Swimming, Mythology, Music/ Dancing, Friends, History, Series, Art, Crafts, Chocolate.. and much more.

I live by myself next to my parents. Our house is build by my great-grandfather and is one of the oldest houses of our village, finished in 1918. There did live 5 small families at one point. It’s not a villa, just a lot of small rooms but I love history and old stuff. That mostly has way more character.
My parents have 2 dogs that come by now and then. One of them is a lot by my side, my big little autistic sausage on legs.

When you walk to the end of my street and cross a street, you are basically in a nature reserve called "De Meinweg" that's perfect for hiking, cycling, walking the dogs, photography, breathing, picnicking, and so on. There is also a horse riding school really close by. And in the city next to my village you have for instance a Outlet canter and Roermond is also a nice city that’s worth a visit. There are more things that you can do near my home, but I can tell you if I know what kind of things you like to do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my best experiences in the past was visiting my Norwegian friends in Svelgen and going to Ozora festival in Hungary. I love to be surrounded by good people and to meet new ones. That's why I love Couch surfing!
