Hi there! My name is Mara, I live in Amersfoort, which is a really nice city.
I'm a big fan of The Netherlands and love the different seasons we have here. But, in summer it's still too cold to swim in the ocean, in winter it's not cold enough to do ice-skating, no mountains and a lot of people everywhere. So I also like to undertake trips to explore other things, find peace and run up hills :)

I live together with my boyfriend in Amersfoort near city center, it's about 5min by bus from central station or 20 by foot. We have a bike that you can borrow to explore more of the city.

I like to hang out with friends, playing games, cook, read, draw, doing sports: running, swimming, cycling, skating
