ABOUT ME

I'm a 21 year old illustration major. I like to think I'm sort of funny and witty, but you're absolutely welcome to judge for yourself. I like to have a good laugh, or a good conversation - both'll do. I am doing creative stuff most of the time, or having nice drinks on my nice roof.

PHILOSOPHY

I do my best to treat the people around me the way I'd like to be treated. Work for the things I desire, appreciate the little things out there (not forgetting the big things!). Don't we all?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will hopefully grace you and your couches with my presence and great fun this summer. We'll be euro-tripping and looking for places to stay, but also looking to meet new people and hang out. I've recently acquired my own place in Breda, so I will also be happy to host some nice surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've slept on many couches, but not yet surfed on any.

Interests

I'm an avid reader of English books, museum-goer, I like being busy, I also don't mind doing nothing at all. Currently studying illustration/visual communication, which I love. Drawing, print and photography (street and portrait mostly). I love movies, good ones and a couple of bad ones from time to time. Art and design are my biggest passion, but I guess I love life lots in general. I like to talk anything from banter to a deep, deep discussion. I am interested in so many things that I can't even begin to name them. I suppose the simple things in life might amaze me the most.
