CURRENT MISSION

Find out what it is life has in mind for me.

ABOUT ME

Basically I'm just a down-to-earth girl that grew up at the countryside in the Netherlands (yes countryside is rare in the Netherlands, but it does exist) and therefore I love nature. But somehow big cities and great adventures seem to attrackt me very much too, so I want to see the world in all its facets.
As for my personality, I guess i'm really friendly and loyal, its usually pretty hard for me to see the negative things about people. I love partying and doing crazy stuff but on the other hand I'm also pretty much a science nerd.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what you make it, nobody can do that for you. So live your own dream as much as you can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the greatest things I have done so far was rowing over the Danube last summer for Amnesty International. We rowed from Vienna to Budapest (400 km) in seven days which was really awesome.
And I wish I could tell amazing stories about great travels all over the world. Unfortunately I have been studying for the past three years so I did not have the time/money. I planning on totally making this up to myself! :)
