CURRENT MISSION

Just came back from a month-long trip in Nepal hiking in the mountains. Now spending some time in Vancouver and Seattle before I will work on a ranch close to Williams Lake in BC. Enjoying my time off before starting work in September in Amsterdam.

ABOUT ME

I studied international business in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Having traveled and lived abroad I have learnt to speak a mingle of Latin American Spanish! I love to meet new people, understand their culture and learn new things. I am always excited about discovering new cities and exploring the outdoors. I like to go biking, hiking, climbing, swimming, horse riding, surfing etc. etc. If you can teach me a new skill I will be very interested! In addition I like to spend time with people, talking; having a drink; cooking food together. I like Italian and Indian cuisine but also open to new things :)
