Overview
About Me
I’m a student from The Netherlands with Asian roots (Indonesia and China). I enjoy contemporary dance and yoga. I’m always looking around to experience the pure moments in everyday life.
You'll find my cooking, telling stories, and especially: being interested in what you've experienced in your life!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet new friends and listen to their personal stories. For me, couchsurfing leads to experiences that cannot be discribed be words :)
We are not always aware of the wonderful backgrounds we actually have, and those the kind of discoveries which I value the most.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite film is the Imitation game.
I listen to various kinds of music, mostly calm songs with piano and/or other instruments. I play the piano myself. I appreciate German literature. Intellectual conversations with me are about empathy, what brings passion to your life – and how to make a positive impact on the world.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As part of a UN youth movement, I was able to speech at the UN in Geneva, which was really amazing! Furthermore, I have travelled to various countries, which I really liked (especially Asia). I'm also into contemporary dance and various sports, such as snowboarding, biking, running, yoga, windsurfing and kitesurfing.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am currently learning Spanish and Chinese, which I really enjoy! I am also down to practise my French and German more. Intellectually, I am interested in Sustainable Development, Psychology and Organisational Development.
What I Can Share with Hosts
If you want, I would be happy to share with you the basics of photography, how to learn languages, drawing, yoga, dancing or photography! I've also got some interesting stories to tell of previous experiences while travelling, which were mostly fun and exciting!
