ABOUT ME

NOTE: I will be more prepared to host you if you send me a nice, personal request and if your profile is properly filled out.

NOTE: If you are a guy and the reason you are writing me a request is because you would like to have sex..... fuck off.

Alright! Now about me--> I grew up in Amsterdam and moved to the UK because I have ambitions to go to drama school. I'm passionate about theatre and acting. The reason I moved to the Uk is because I'm half english and theatre schools are much better over here. Plus I was kind of fed up with living in the same place for such a long time. I love travelling and need get out of the country at least once a year. When I was 17 I travelled through europe on my own. at 18 I travelled through Marocco. This summer I'm did another trip around Europe. Hopefully next summer it will be India.

Some words to describe me: Loyal, creative, outgoing, chatty, responsable, indepentent

I love: theatre, acting, dancing, observing ,drawing, travelling, new experiences, adventures, people

And I've been a vegetarian all my life

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a game, play it!
Think out of the box

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Whenever someone is kind enough to offer me their couch I will be sociable and do some cooking and the washing up. I like cooking so I can offer a good meal! I also respect that some has a life and is not my personal travel guide. I'm indepentent and am perfectly able to go out and see the city by myself. Of course I would enjoy doing things together very much as well!

When I have some time on my hands I like to host travellers as well. It's fun to meet new people from other parts of the world. I'm an easy going host. I accept people who might be very different from me as long as they are friendly and respect my house.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was seventeen I went couchsurfing for the first time. I thought it was great! I met some nice new people and it makes travelling on your own much more fun!

Interests

I have an interest in almost all art forms: photography, painting, writing, dancing, music, designing - but especially theater.
I like to go drawing in museums to develop my drawing skills. I also like African dance and am currently looking for an African dance class in Manchester.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16 I went to a festival by train with a friend of mine. On the way back from Budapest to Amsterdam we decided to jump out of the train in Vienna (it was standing still somewhere for about 2 minutes) It was scary to see the train leave but I'm glad I did it. By then I didn't even know where I was. Had 3 fantastic days in Vienna while my friend went on to Prague. It was a great experience being in a city by myself and to be able to make my own decisions. (Age in mind hey) Just this feeling of freedom I think every traveler knows and which I want to experience again and again.
