I studied at an international Liberal Arts and Sciences college in Utrecht, the Netherlands, majoring in Sociology and History. Currently I'm interning at the Dutch Embassy in Costa Rica.

I have a passion for music, I sing and play the guitar and piano, I also enjoy reading a good book, watching films, cooking a great meal, surfing and above all meeting new people and discovering new places. I dream of becoming a journalist, so I won't shy away from conversations about current events, politics, and life in general, and will listen attentively while you tell me everything about your culture and the country that you live in. Preferably over a beer or a good glass of wine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Having studied at an international college, I meet a lot of people from all over the world, and I love to learn about their cultures, their countries, and their lives. When I'm travelling, I want to learn about the places that I travel to and the people that live there, and I think that Couchsurfing offers a great opportunity to discover the world through the eyes of its locals. I think that journeys are not just memorable for the places you go to, but above all for the people you are with. I want to see and discover as much of the world as possible, meet as many people as possible and learn as many new things as possible.
