Hi everyone, my name is Leona, I'm a 29 year old forever student from the Netherlands and I've got a travelbug I can't seem to shake. After multiple studies and a botched world trip (thanks covid) I now finally feel like I've found my place in teaching! My most reason endeavor therefore is studying to become an English teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet loads of new people from all over the world. I always like to expand my horizons and learn more about life in other places. By couchsurfing I hope to really get a feel for what living in another country is like!

Interests

Whether it's at home or away, I love experiencing and learning new things. Besides traveling, hiking, and sightseeing, I love reading (books or manga) and martial arts.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm mostly into fantasy and si-fi, and I absolutely love British detective series.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation and positive company! I've been described as that motivational voice you hear shouting encouragment in the background and I love that. I'm good at chatting about day to day life or philosophizing about our place in the universe (I'm not really good with politics though). I'm can also bake you a batch of Dutch pancakes!
