Hello there, my name is Anouk. Growing up in different countries has sparked my curiosity to explore the world's wonders and complexities. By traveling and meeting people from various backgrounds, well, the curiosity simply keeps growing. I enjoy finding myself in the middle of a bustling big city, but also in the middle of nowhere :-)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To discover other people’s perspectives and ideas of the world & share good moments with food and wine or beer!
Although my profile is rather new on couchsurfing, I have used it with friends through their profile in Chile and had cool experiences staying at couchsurfers’ places. The concept is pretty amazing :-)
(I hope to be able to accept guests once I am more settled).

Música, películas y libros

A couple of book titles that spring to my mind...
*Americanah, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
*Country of my Skull, Antjie Krog
*The Bluest Eye, Toni Morrison
Any kind of book which triggers my mind really; especially books which address historical events or important themes such as gender, race, identity.

Music & films: more interesting to talk about and share in person.
