ABOUT ME

About me,

I'm overall quite a happy human being. mostly minding my own business.. enjoying the small things in life. But sometimes you want to go a little bigger.. like traveling the world for example.

And that's why I'm here. I'm new here.., as you can see in the part about my couchsurfing experience, but that doesn't make me less motivated.

Let me tell you something about me.
And the best way to do that is by telling you about how I feel about a few things.

I like a lot of things in the world.
especially people. But I also enjoy reading books, listening to music, and of course.. to travel.
In my pictures you can see some made at a rowing event. I'm in a students- Rowingclub and I really enjoy spending my time there because of the perfect mixture of Leisure and Sports.

There are many more things in life that I like and Love. for example my boyfriend, chocolate, Icecream and my friends. (as you might have noticed, I have a sweet tooth)

The meal of the day I like the most is dinner.. And I also really like preparing said meal. (I'm not vegetarian btw.. but I also know a few good recipes that don't contain meat&fish)

warning: I eat a lot. I'm little (for a Dutch girl).. but I have amazed many people with my great appetite.

Unfortunately there are also a few things I dislike..
let me list them for you.
-accidentally eating a bug..
-Rain when I want to go outside
-A beautiful sunny day when i have to stay inside
-Going to sleep after a day of doing nothing
-feeling grumpy
-finishing the last book/episode of a series.
-stepping outside of the supermarket with a bag filled with groceries and remembering you forgot one tiny little important item.

Thanks for taking a moment to get me to know a little better. I'm looking forward to meeting as many of you guys in real life as I possibly can!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to love

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experience was when we stayed with my rowing team at someone's place in Tilburg. It was so nice. Our host was so friendly, that I really wanted to experience that again.
I decided to sign up myself for couchsurfing.. I'm really curious about what the couchsurfing life will bring me!!
