About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Final weeks before 3 months of Indonesia!

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old Dutch student living in Enschede. Since I graduated high school I have been trying to travel as much as I can. Especially my half year abroad in Central America was amazing, as was my Bachelor thesis in Colombia. I always try to find an excuse to leave home and experience something completely new.

The main reason I love traveling so much is that you meet new people with their own unique story every day. Something which unfortunately you do not do at home. I also enjoy the flexible, live by the day, mentality of traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

You can only judge if you have experienced something.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have no experience yet, but during my last trip heard so many great stories about it; I'm eager to find out!

Interests

Diving, hiking, biking, cooking, music, soccer, movies, going out, but most of all anything that's new and exciting.

  • cooking
  • movies
  • traveling
  • music
  • cycling
  • hiking
  • scuba diving
  • soccer

Music, Movies, and Books

Enjoy all, but usually only read while traveling when I've got time on bus/train trips, fighting a hangover in a hostel or lazing in hammock.

Music is part of my everyday life and I cannot travel without music. My interest is very broad, from rap to rock to reggae.

At home I watch movies often with my roommates. Again, (almost) anything goes.

Teach, Learn, Share

Practice Spanish or English (both mine and others'), ride a bike, Dutch cooking.
