CURRENT MISSION

Living fully and crossing boarders

ABOUT ME

Very much in love with life and enjoying exploring the endless possibilities it gives. Yoga, cooking, running through the woods and fields, playing music, meeting up with friends make me aware of being alive in my body and mind and give me space to be open to spontaneous, unsuspected encounters.

PHILOSOPHY

Life doesn't happen to you, you happen to life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment on couches! I'm a very gifted couch and carpet sleeper, so I don't need much foam or space. I've come to Montréal and Toronto this fall to explore the cities after travelling and volunteering in the States for 3 months. I love to cook and sharing the goodies. I'm very good at entertaining myself but also excited to jump into interesting ideas or activities.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Last summer (2012) I joined couchsurfing with the intention to hitch to Germany where me and a fellow hitchiker stayed at an amazing apartment in Neuköln, Berlin. I LOVE how quickly you connect with new people through couchsurfing. At the beginning of 2013 I found two Hungarian couchseekers in my hometown and took them in for the night. It was wonderful to here some of their life stories from their country. In April I went hitching and surfing with another friend, again in Berlin and it was once again so awesome to see the city from partly somebody else's perspective. I'm looking forward to giving back some couchspace when I get back in Utrecht in November.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Put at a park by a hitch in the middle of the night across the border of Germany, rolling out a mat in the high grass. Waking up by the sun and discovering we're in a flowerfield looking over a flowery, hilly landscape and the amazing feeling of pure freedom. YÉS!
