About Me

I'm a girl from the Netherlands, where I grew up on a dutch farm. What I like to do in my spare time is: reading books (for example: Harry Potter, Jane Austen and thrillers), watching Detective series, do sporty things (like cycling, jogging, sailing and swimming), singing (Ed Sheeran, Phil Collins) and having a social life with friends and family. After travelling through Australia, I hope to study medecine. My absolute dream would be to work with UNICEF or Docters Without Borders, but first I need to finish my study of course.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While traveling I love to meet the locals. I want to take a look in someone else his/hers life. That is what is making your travels even more interesting.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste differs all the time, so hard to say. But I will always love Phil Collins, Paul Simon, Michael Jackson and U2. My favorite books are Harry Potter, Thrilers, Dutch Literary and old English Romans. Two of my absolute favorite movies would be Her and Into The Wild.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

volunteer at a refugee center. So many great but horrible stories. Helping those people really kept me warm during the cold Dutch winters.
