I am Iris, a 28 year old living in the beautiful city with even more beautiful natural surroundings of Nijmegen.
I like meeting new people, learning languages, harvesting food and cooking... and sharing a meal, of course :)
In my day to day live I like to go for a hike and stroll, and my job is to go on adventures in the outdoors with a bunch of children- as a childcare worker.
If I dance I always feel great again, and singing polyphonic songs always warms my heart - as does making an actual fire, or a beautiful comment of one of the kids, or...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the great things of traveling is - beautiful nature aside- how quickly and easy it is to find kind people. Staying with a local only enriches this. I find couchsurfing a beautiful platform and great way to keep connecting and to counterbalance the capitalist world we live in.
