CURRENT MISSION To travel to new places and learn more about the world and continue living the journey ABOUT ME My dream is to travel and meet all different kinds of people and I believe everyone should live their life to the fullest! Love to laugh, dream, be silly. Graduated from UC Santa Cruz as a psychology major and now living in Oakland, CA, working with adults with developmental disabilities. Music is my passion in life and I would love to discuss music, art, psychology/the brain, or anything else! I was born in the Netherlands and am half Dutch so would love to talk about Holland as well! :) PHILOSOPHY LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST and never let fear hold you back from doing anything you want. You will be magnetically pulled to whatever you are meant to do. "It's not the destination, but the journey."

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I went to a week long music festival on the Dutch island of Terschelling with my older sister and it was one of the most enthralling and eye-opening experiences I've ever had! Live music/meeting new people, biking around the island..it was pure freedom and bliss. Also- camping and seeing the sunset at Bryce Canyo, Utah was amazingly beautiful.
