Hey there! I’m Meike, from the Netherlands. In August 2025 I quit my job as a social worker and started travelling for some months, mostly by hitchhiking and sometimes on a motorbike. I love the freedom of the road, meeting people, and all the surprises that happen on the way.

I’m an adventurous traveller. I like a mix of busy cities and quiet villages, and I really enjoy being in nature or in the mountains. I always take my camera with me and like to make photos of real moments and everyday life during my travels. If you are curious, you can check my Instagram @MeikeHijman 🌞

Almost 10 years ago, I started eating vegetarian. This is not always easy while travelling, but I don't mind a challange! 🥦

Couchsurfing for me is a way to meet locals and get to know the country in a different way, and I love the fact that it brings me to places off the beaten track!

Ps. My profile says i'm 29, but I am 27. I can't change this...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm always happy to meet locals! I hope to have my own appartment in Amsterdam one day, so I can host people too!
