Hi fellow Couchsurfers!! I'm Lianda :)

I am a fun, curious, philosophical and adventurous type of person.
I am engaged to the most wonderful and handsome man.
I am a non-smoker.
I like an occasional alcoholic beverage and socialising.
I love music, the outdoors and people. My friends describe me as an interesting and kind individual.

I cannot host people at the moment, due to the fact that I do not have my own place at the moment.
I am planning to get my own place within the next 2 years and then I will be able to host other Couchsurfers and return the favour and kindness that was shown to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a passion for travelling, even though I have not travelled much. Part of travelling for me is not only sight-seeing, but also meeting other people who is different from me and tasting exotic foods. I also like visiting museums.

I had a very normal office-go-to-work-go-home type of life and I need some serious excitement

I am currently an au pair in the Netherlands. I want to make use of Couchsurfing, not only to surf but also to meet new people.

So far, I have had a wonderful experience with Couchsurfing :) I have met very nice people I would have never met if it was not for Couchsurfing - people who have:
*done what I want to do
*studied the same degree
*a lecturer / professor from another field than what I have studied
*and people from my own hometown that I have never met before.

Couchsurfing is enriching my life on such a deep and adventurous level that it almost feel surreal.

What I Can Share with Hosts
