Hi all,
I'm Jonne, a 23 year old student (architecture) from the Netherlands. This small country next to Germany that is manly known because of Amsterdam ;)

I'm a cheerfull, enthusiastic, flexible and easy going person. In my free time I love hiking, cooking, wandering around in cities to find hidden jams, reading, making clothes and finding new hobbies

In the past I have traveled to a number of counties including Indonesia and Vietnam where I have stayed with local families. Traveling has always been one of my passions and I simply just love it to endulge myself into a new culture. Since I'm interested in local life styles, I very much enjoy cultural exchange with locals.

I'm always hyped to meet new people, and open for meet ups!

At the moment I'm traveling to Japan to learn from its beautiful culture, who knows I might see you there :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on couchsurfing to meet new people and interact with people from different cultures. I hope to be able to stay with some host to get indulged into their habits.
I have been living abroad for the last 1,5 years (studying in Poland and working in Sydney) and I always enjoy learning from different cultures and exploring different cities.

Interests
