About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding that amazing little unique spot in every city I visit!

WHO?

I am a biology student living in Amsterdam. I like having fun, but I'm not the party-type of person. I consider myself curious and open.

I'm eager to go on adventures (real ones, with nature and stuff!) and see the world and its people. I would consider myself laid back and easy going, I don't worry too much.

For travel I try to avoid anything touristic and I try to find the real people, cultures and nature. Travel for me is all about connecting with the people and the landscapes, not with the brochures or the tour guides. I prefer travelling by train, bicycle or on foot if it's possible.

I'm quite fond of photography (a link to my flickr account should be somewhere on my profile), especially analogue (film-) photography.

PHILOSOPHY

Think again!
