Overview
About Me
Connecting is my middle name. I love life and believe it's not meant to spend 90% of your time working. Finding my way in life, 'outside the box', following my heart and the joy is what make my heart tick.
I do a lot of projects in resilience, urban farming, sustainability and community building. I am an outgoing person that loves to 'challenge the status quo'. I love meeting people, love dogs and cats. I feel most happy when the sun is shining, when I can see and smell the ocean and when I have time to enjoy it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have used AirBnB, but I miss the personal touch in that. So I heard that couchsurfing is more about meeting people and connecting instead of just having a bed to sleep in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Lived all around the world and moved back to NL 2003, that was very brave I think after having been such a free spirit. I started my new adventure in Cape Town, South Africa Aug 1st, 2015. In 2016 I moved back to the Netherlands. Happy to host you!
