I'm Silke Terpstra and from the Netherlands. although being Dutch by state, I don't consider myself 'just' being Dutch -rather someone that lives on the earth itself and isn't bound to any state whatsoever. I am a free soul that likes to travel all across the globe and experience life besides from what I already know, expanding my horizon is what I like.

I currently live in Edinburgh, Scotland and absolutely loving it here,
My hobbies include singing, writing (poetry), playing guitar and piano, fitness, hopping to a party, extreme sports and learning foreign languages.

Cheers folks!
