I am Mauriz, 27 years old, originally from Germany but currently living and working in Amsterdam.

I'm a very social, open-minded and tolerant person who loves to meet new people with diverse backgrounds. I briefly lived in Canada and for about 2 years in France and speak English, French and German.

You can usually find me outside hiking, going to museums and cultural events, or reading a good book in cafés, but I also enjoy inviting people for a cozy dinner night!
