CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as I can, at the moment I'm saving up for my trip to mid- and south-america! I want to learn about and experience other cultures. I am trying to learn how to speak Spanish, it is one of my favourite languages. And ofcouse meeting new people, learn from them and enjoying my freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, explore new places! While travelling for the first time, for six months, I haven't done any couchsurfing. In some countries I've missed getting to know the locals and seeing a new place in a way only a local can! I really would love to experience my next travel in a completely different way, by seeing this places through the eyes of a local.

Interests

My biggest loves in life are salsa dancing and socializing. Dancing in general makes me a very happy girl, listening to all kinds of music :) reading, cooking and eating it afterwards ofcourse! Especially the Italian and Asian kitchen really interest me. I also like to dive, hike and be active in general. I also don't mind a night on a couch, watching a good serie or movie.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am currently trying to learn Spanish, I'd love it if people could help me with my Spanish. In return I could help people with their English or Dutch, if someone is interested in learning Dutch ;). I am passioned about dancing salsa and for me it would be a pleasure teaching people how to dance salsa, bachata or merengue! The biggest reason for me to join couchsurfing, is to meet people from different cultures and with different ways of living/thinking. I like to philosophize and it would be so nice to be able to share that with others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, all kinds of activities (salsa ofcourse :)), music, a little bit of my culture, enthousiasm about travelling and meeting new people.

Hopefully I can share my personality with hosts, so we can really get to know each other!
