CURRENT MISSION

Surviving the Haute Route

ABOUT ME

I am a joyful, curious and adventurous person. I work as a doctor from Amsterdam in psychiatry and had the luck to study philosophy for the last two years. I love the outdoors, especially the mountains, so in free time I enjoy skiing and hiking. In Amsterdam I enjoy yoga, running through our beautiful city, dancing, visiting museums and going to oure cine centers.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a host in Amsterdam and as a guest around the world

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had quite some amazing experiences during my couchsurfing “life”. Dave, a great Madrileño, showed me around his city and showed me a hidden bar where Ernest Hemmingway stayed. In Tunja, my friend David showed me his med school. In general, I think it's just a way more sustainable way of traveling in which you can fit in with the local culture more easily and are less disruptive.

Intereses

Athletics, speed ice skating, literature, yoga, coffee, wine, medicine, climbing. New hobbies while travelling: sitting in the metro, trying to dance some salsa, making new friend all over the world (and planning to visit them!).

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I hope to be reasonably pleasant company. If you have spare time, i can make you a meal or take you out for dinner. I can give you some medical consultation if need be, or tell you some travel histories over a coffee or two. And hopefully, a return visit to Amsterdam?
