About Me

I am a little bit shy once I first meet someone. But as I get to know you and start to get familiar and comfortable with a new environment, my colours will come out and hopefully shine bright. Once that happens you will want me to shut up, trust me. People call me crazy but I call it having fun. :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im on Couch Surfing because as an aupaire, I do not get paid a lot. And it has always been one of my dreams to travel. What better way than to learn about someone else's culture and country and get a cheap rate for accomodation while we're at it!
And this way, if possible, I can also have a guide to show me the way!
Perfect!

Interests

Up until May 2013 I was a Ballet Dancer. I plan on dancing again this year but perhaps another style of dance, such as Contemporary.
I enjoy playing sports such as soccer, tennis, athletics and netball.
And I enjoy watching sports such as swimming, athletics, soccer, rugby, tennis, netball, basketball, hockey, and olympics. (another of my wishes is to watch a live game! :D)
And since arriving in the Netherlands, I enjoy cycling too.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If they are interested, I can share my culture with them. Things like how we celebrate holidays and about the education system and the animals we have or dont have and many other differences. And the best places to go! We can share travel ideas, too.
