My name is Tessa, I'm 25 and I'm studying Religion, Conflict and Globalization in the Netherlands. I have my own place with a tiny guestroom in the city.

I enjoy good conversations, good food (I'm a vegetarian, sometimes trying to go vegan), running, yoga, dancing, and my degree. I like people who are open minded, kind and patient. I lived in Amsterdam in the past, but only just moved back in June (after five years living in Berlin/NYC) to live here for the summer to finish my degree. I don't know the city as well as I used to so I may not be the best tour guide at the moment but I can give you some tips.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I took care of my grandma (who is almost 98!) several times for a couple of weeks. Some of the most difficult and most beautiful experiences. I'm currently writing my MA and I'm in the Honors program so once that's finished that will be another amazing thing I have done! There's much more, but we can talk about that some time!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I know a lot about terrorism, racism, feminism. I'm very patient when it comes to discussing these topics and I love to teach people more about these topics. I'd love to meet people from a large variety of backgrounds so I can continue learning.
