Dutch woman, mother of 3, grandmother of 2 and in love.
Open minded, honest, loyal and emotional.

Social Entrepeneur in the travel business and volunteer in the Netherlands & Ethiopia.

My home is in the South part of The Netherlands, 10 minutes drive from Germany and 10 minutes drive from Belgium. If you can not find me overthere I am most of the time in Ethiopia, my second home. Or I am traveling to discover new countries / places and cultures in our world.
It makes me happy to be surrounded by positive, open minded & hospital people from different countries and cultures.
I Love to hear stories from travellers & locals to learn something from them about Life.
And I want to make adventures as much as possible. Experiences in my Life, good or bad, are giving me more satisfaction then materials.
Traveling is giving me energy and is inspiring me to make the best of my life. It also is showing me my good and bad parts. It learns me to see Life and events in different aspects.

People all over the world inspire me to be the best person I can be.

Dream: skydiving , because it is for me the most scaring thing to do and I want to challenge myself to do things that scares me.
DID IT in August 2018. MY FIRST SKYSDIVING EXPERIENCE WAS VERY SPECIAL BECAUSE I WAS JUMPING OUT OF A HOTAIR BALLOON.

Dream: a home in Hawassa, Ethiopia where i can host people from all over the world.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To meet new people and cultures, get more Life experience and learn from it. I Love to be with the locals, to see their normal life and be part of it.
