Hi! My name is Ellen, i am 26 years old and i really like to meet new happy and fun people to hang out with. I am very social, clean, eager to learn stuff from you/the country. I am a very open minded person and definitely not boring! I love to challenge myself and learn everyday, i try to learn other languages and cultural things while i visit a different country. I would love to learn new languages, cook traditional etc. But i can also tell you a lot about the Netherlands and my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet lokals and not only do the touristic attractions. I like nature and socialising with people, get to know the country i visit from a different perspective

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Voluntairy work in Kenya (3 months) and Thailand (7 weeks) with children at school/orphinige. Last year I was backpacking on my own through Asia for 3,5 months. Can't choose between those things!

Teach, Learn, Share

I finished my study 'Pedagogiek'; working with children and their families who have difficulties. Something like a social worker.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of stories, happiness, a helping hand.
