About Me

CURRENT MISSION

settle down in The Netherlands with a nice job that helps society.

ABOUT ME

I am a young woman with the world right at my feet. I like to travel and discover the world by myself, and to not chose the paved ways. I love good food, and to visit new places and people. I'm a practical idealist who wants to make the world a better place and am open to meet new people. Currently I work at customer care, but am searching for something more related to my studies. Additionally Im involved in local politics as civil representer.

PHILOSOPHY

Live to improve the world for others now and in future generations. And really do that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the Arab Gulf Countries I met almost all of my friends through couchsurfing. I loved that experience and then also surfed at some other places (England, France). I love to travel through couchsurfing, as then you get to really know a country of city. Now I'm back in the Netherlands and willing to meet others and guide them through my country. And of course I haven't quit travelling myself either!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I mostly liked my time in the Gulf region when I met many surfers and made good friends. With one, I travelled to Bahrain, that was an awesome adventure/road Trip!
