About Me

Im really active person, so I always have a lot going on in my life. I might take you along if possible or you might encounter me dancing through the living room and going from one place to another! But, if possible, I like spending time with you and exchange interesting stories and such.
After graduating my master at the TU Delft I explored Mexico, the United States and Canada! Interested in nature, culture and cities as I've studied architecture and urban planning/ urban design. I'm now on an exploration of what I want to do with my life, so trying a lot of different things like food saving, plastic recycling, being a vegan different sporta like climbing, running, swimming, biking.. Life is so great and confusing at the same time, so I love to hear how other people live their lives and get inspired.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a host I love giving people the ability to travel who otherwise wouldn't have had this. Either from developing countries or bec you want to experience traveling in another way even though your not from far away! Sharing lives, similar or strange, is always interesting. My fellow Europeans always excite me as well and I Love to have in depth conversations about Europe, European politics and maybe you can teach me a thing or two about European history because I didn't pay attention in high school haha. Love meeting new people, getting to know them through their homes and creating a sense of counter economics through trading and sharing instead of the capitalist regimes most hotels and such are part of.
