Hey everyone!

My name is Ilse and I am from The Netherlands. I love travelling and I’ve solo travelled to quite a few countries now. I’m very intrigued by Couchsurfing, since I have always heard people talking about it, but never actually done it myself.

So, here I am. I will talk a bit about myself first. I am a very enthousiast if and adventurous girl. I like to see myself as very positive minded and I like to have deep conversations with people about all sorts of things. Also, I love to learn different languages and have trying them out on people :)

This Januari I decided to quit my studies (International Business) and start another whole year of travel from August on. However, I will probably be doing short trips all over Europe. I’d love to go back to Thailand, travel to India and then go to Colombia, Bolivia and Peru.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people and seeing different ways of life. Through this I am able to fully emerge myself in a different culture and meet people in a very different way than I’m used to.

Interests

• sports
• learning languages
• muay thai
• travelling around the world
• trying new foods
