About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, meet new friends and discover new cultures and acts of nature.

ABOUT ME

Hi there! I'm a 30yr old girl from Amsterdam who has a passion for travelling and life itself. I want to explore and discover as much as possible and im very curious about life and all the beautiful things in it. I'm very social, spontanious, bubbly, open minded, adventurous and active. I'ts very cliché, but i love to laugh, I don't take everything too serious, just smile and be happy :) I love meeting new friends all around the world. I have been travelling on and off now for about 6years now. Mostly Europe, Asia and Australia.
I lived in Australia for about 3 years. I met my boyfriend in Australia, and we are traveling now together eversince and planning on keeping traveling for many years.

PHILOSOPHY
LOVE everybody :)
Think positive. Smile. Be kind to others and they will return kindness back instead. Positive thoughts attract positive things.
Live ur life to the fullest, so when ur old, you can look back at your life thinking; wouw what an awesome life i've had!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment i can't offer my couch to anyone, because i don't have any(more) :) I've recently quitted my job, quitted my house and everything that comes along. So for now i'm just surfing and 'taking'. But when the moment is there and i'm settled down somewhere, i will be definite be hosting myself too and 'return' the favour ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before I always used my friends CS account, because we travelled together and applied for a couch with her account because that was convenient then. Thats why i dont have many reviews/comments of hosts.
At the moment i am traveling with my bf, who is very active on couchsurfing.
I have been hosting some CS'ers in Amsterdam, but not very often. Thats because i was travelling myself very often.

Volunteered in Nepal after the earthquake by building shelter houses.

In total 5 months trip around India, staying in an Osho ashram and getting to know the real India.
