I'm a researcher / botanist working in the horticulture 🌿, and a freelance professional photographer.

Had my own appartment in the city centre of Leiden since the beginning of 2018 and going to leave Leiden at the end of October 2025! I am going to move to Oostendam (Municipality of Ridderkerk)

So right now I can’t host anybody for a while.

Futhermore I'm a very open minded person and I would love to meet new people and have some fun with! I can even do a tour if I have the time for it. I don't mind being social and have some drinks (prefer the weekends for that) 🍻 🍷 🥃.

Ask me anything!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Explore the world, get to know other cultures and capturing the beauty of our planet. Love to show people around Leiden. I know almost every history of this city.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The 100km 'ringvaart' rowing competition in an old wooden boat which took me 14 hours to complete.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

What I did for years was rowing and giving rowing instructions and right now helping people with photography and biology questions!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Making use of everything my house has to offer in the old city centre of Leiden, having the best stay and learn you about the rich history and maybe some Dutch.
