About Me

I’m a easy-going person, always looking for some real connection. I love being in the nature, hiking or just enjoying the beautiful places the earth has to offer. To stay close to myself I (try to, I find it difficult sometimes to put myself down and do nothing) meditate everyday. I think this is a great way to reflect and to listen to my inner voice, because there is so much noise in this busy world!

I study applied psychology at Fontys in Eindhoven, I chose this study because I want to learn more about human behaviour and I’ve noticed I learned a lot about myself during this study too. Before this study, I worked as a nurse helping older sick people. This was a great lesson for me, I’ve experienced great things - positive and also kind of negative, but in the end “negative” experiences can mean a lot too - but I want to help younger people who find it hard to stay close to themselves and find out what they are doing on this planet. I’ve found my mission in life, which is inspiring others and connecting to people on a deeper layer.

I know I’m going to live my dream one day; I love life and I’m hopeful I can make a difference in this world!

Love.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really love music, in the future I’d love to be a DJ. I’ve got several playlists for different “vibes”. Really open to discover new music!
To be honest I don’t really watch that much movies. I really enjoy watching a good documentary or series.
The best book I ever read is “the logics of luck”.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to the Philippines in 2016. I participated at a Public Health project for one month, this was truly amazing!! I stayed at a host family. This was next to a fire station and a cockpit arena 🐔

It was great to help people, without asking something for it in return. This was my most nobel thing I ever done. Next to that I'm helping people in the (mental) healthcare in the Netherlands for years. I really love people and I love to help!

So, not just one thing. I’m collecting beautiful moments, I love the journey.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really want to connect and learn more about the culture of various all over the world! I can learn you about how we live in the Netherlands. I want to learn new music and share my songs with you.

Actually... I want to learn everything possible, and I'm open to share (almost) everything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Create new moments.
I’m not afraid to follow my intuition and see where it brings me.
I can be pretty direct, I think it’s a Dutch thing, at least this makes me transparent.
My passion for music.
Deep conversations if you’re open to it.
