About Me

Hello hello!!

To start things of, I'm one big tornado of excitement, chaos, creativity and joy, who can’t help herself but be super political all the time. 🍉

I'm an free-spirited adventurer thats into music, meeting and hanging out with new people, festivals, living as eco-friendly and decolonial as possible, crazy creativity, concerts, climbing and debating. I currently live in an off grid super cute squatted eco village in the south of amsterdam with the sweetest community i’ve ever been a part of. We do loads of things together, try to grow our own food, hang out together a lot, host events, it’s one of the nicest living experiences of my life.
My life consist of a lot of climbing, doing research (as i’m doing a PhD at university of amsterdam), organizing against the fascists, cooking and hanging out with friends. I love to organise super weird events and challenges (like the Pancake-Eating-Running-Festival, real life qluedo with waterpistols, a watertrampoline-on-the-public-lake-event ar the 'create your name in the largest way possible' challenge). Lastly, i pride myself on being a pretty decent kook.

also i dance while biking.

Music, Movies, and Books

I think music is my favorite thing in the world. I'm really into upbeat electronic music (like jungle, house, trophies and dnb), jazz and funk, hophip and soul, and the list goes on. I also really like vinyl and going to concerts, festivals, disco-parties.
Film is also somewhere high in that 'things-i'm-most-into-list'. I really like comedy like Taskmaster, The Office, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and Broad City, but i'm also into darker filmworks like Black Mirror or Utopia.

I really wish i’d read more. Id read the shit out of political theory and (revolutionary) history.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's a lot of strange things i've done but i think my top one is asking my statistics proffessor to the uni-gala.

but i really cant tell. i do a lot of free-spirited stuff. i've
- lived at a camping site for over a year, building an little revolutionary community
- gone rock climbing in spain, france and england
- (wild)camped out in a dead valcanoe in Germany
- hitchhiked onto a boat in Copenhagen
- rolled a water trampoline across a bridge
- cycled from england back to the netherlands
- was voted most likely to work in the circus in the highschool year book
- organised a pancake-eating-running-contest while on erasmus exchange
- climbed fast enough into a pole for the police to just mis my feet by 10cm to stop me
