About Me

ABOUT ME

I love:
* reading maps
* feeding ducks
* wandering around in bookstores and libraries
* the smell of freshly cut grass
* jumping into a pool when nobody is in it
* walking in summer rain without shoes
* eating an aplle starting it from its bottom
* the smell of blowed out match
* licking the salt from my arm after swimming in the sea
* watching the shapes of the clouds
* listening to U2 when it's snowing
* dancing without caring what people are thinking
* when someone understands my humour
* wearing heels
* the smell of old books
* being hugged
* trying new tastes
* wandering around aimlessly in the first day in an unknown city
* animals
* sitting in an outdoor thermal bath when it is snowing
* travelling by train
* that I can rely on my friends day or night
* getting up in the middle of the night and eating something
* the details of paintings
* sleeping in a cold room.

I hate:

* warm fizzy water
* mornings without having a coffee
* people who lie
* wearing wintercoats
* when the snow is melting
* being told what to do
* when someone has no real personality
* circuses (Cirque du Soleil is an exception)
* driving in dawn
* being afraid of something new or unknown
* the fact that everybody lives in a world of computers
* that I don't remember my former lives :)
* when people hunt animals
* the look of old people when they envy the youth
* zoos
* men who direct me when I'm parking, despite the fact that I've got the wheel

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to live in a world full of Couchsurfers

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just turned 18. hungry for new, for the unknown. A young, silly bohemian girl. CS had not even existed back then. The organization was called Servas. And just did not recognise what have I started. It's an addiction. It's some kind of drug. After a while you are craving for some new craziness, like being woken up by someones dog jumping on your bed, and eating his morning-biscuit on your back day after day for one week. Or finding yourself in the middle of the craziest party among the most elite Dutch architecture students at their Union, who knows? CS is like life. You never know what’s around the corner. And that is the most amazing of both.
