Overview
About Me
I am 30 years old, living with my cat and doing as much fun things as I can - while I work to pay for the fun things. Having dinner somewhere, going on walks, going to a movie, a fun game night with friends or hopping on a plane for a few fun days abroad.
I currently work for a company where I talk to people and hand out advice regarding COVID. Besides this I am also working as a writer, because that last thing is what I love most: being busy with words and talking to interesting people to hear their stories.
Even though I really like to do fun things, I'm alsoy a (social) introvert who also needs their alone time for writing/reading and just relaxing. But during my travels I've experienced Couchsurfing and I just love it! I went on a big trip in 2017 where I did most of the surfing, but in 2021 I also went to stay with a host in Mexico, but because of an error in the site we couldn't upload the reviews.
What else... I also really like to box, watch movies, strolling around cities/nature or the beach and I love food... What's life without food, right?!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting people from all over the world. And as a traveler to see the area through the eyes of an local, that's just so much fun.
