CURRENT MISSION

To live life, not just to exist. To bring happiness wherever I go. And to see every situation as an opportunity to grow.

ABOUT ME

I love foreign languages, other cultures, interesting people (in fact, people are usually interesting!) and anything to do with travelling. I come from Holland, but have studied and worked in Austria, Belgium and England, and have made many trips within Europe (and two to Tunisia and Morocco). Because I am a teacher, I get a lot of time off ;) so I make the most of it.

PHILOSOPHY

1. Do not cry because it is over. Smile because it happened.
2. God is too big to fit into one religion.
3. The Kingdom of Heaven is inside you, and all around you.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I know one of the best ways to travel and getting to know the country is to hang out with local people. So by offering travellers a couch in one of the most international cities of Holland, I hope to make their holidays more memorable :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have a lot of positive hosting experiences, and have also done quite a bit of couchsurfing myself in the past few summers, which was great!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I saved my sister from drowning in the sea, even though the current was too strong for me. It was impossible. It was a miracle :)

教，学，和分享

I can play the piano and a little bit of guitar. I can do some poi-spinning, and I can teach English and intercultural communication. I also know how to make sushi, and I love making my own necklaces and bracelets.
