About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Bringing the UWC spirit into the CS community...( curious what UWC is ? read on, you might find out....)

ABOUT ME

Where to start ? First of all I love people because every single one can teach you something new. I enjoy discovering new things and although I am a 'person' person I can cherish a moment alone in a beautifull natural setting. In general warm and giving and enjoy having fun and being crazy as much as a good conversation. I am very young spirited and very open in everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

coming soon...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been 'on the road' for 15 years and had a lot of what we can now finally call CS experiences. In that time CS did not exist and it was a lot harder to get around. That is why I'm now a proud member. To give anyone who wants a similar experience because I am so gratefull to all the people that put up with me in that time, lol
I know everybody is different and that is the way I like it.

Interests

In love with photography and everything in the arts. Always curious to meet new people & explore new places and experiences. My moto in life is you can never judge anything until you have tried or experienced it. A good book or movie can also keep me intertained as well as cooking and a good glass of wine. These are just a few things in a much longer list, so let's meet up and share some good quality time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My UWC ( United World Colleges) experience was my first eye opening moment early in life and it made me want to explore the world and its people which I am still doing today with a big smile and appetite to learn.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is an eternal path of learning. Every person you meet has a message for you and 'hey' you might have one for them too...
