Overview
About Me
Holaaaaaa I'm Serena! :D
—————-
Due to the large amount of requests I receive everyday, I would reply to messages which:
1. State why choose me to be your host
2. Introduce a bit of yourself
3. If I happen to speak your language besides English, please feel free to send me a request in your mother tongue. :)
I would definitely not accept if:
1. You call me by the wrong name (Emma, Anna, the list goes up ;)
2. More than 1 male; more than 2 guests in total
3. You send me a message to just ask me to give you a bed and tips for the city
These are simply basic rules to filter out people who take advantage of this platform. Sincere couch surfers please don't be intimidated. :)

I live and work in the heart of de Pijp in Amsterdam. By bike/metro it's 5 mins to the canals and city center, walking takes around 15 mins. The neighborhood itself is very multicultural and full of everything.
Certainly I'd love to hang out with you but I hope you're an independent traveler. I can always offer a safe and calm place to sleep, but tour guiding is difficult at the moment. However every week I go dancing afro/dancehall and yoga 3+ times. You’re very welcomed to join if that interests you.
There's a lot to discover in Amsterdam, next to red light district or weed.
The city in my eyes is very multi-functional: people come here to party, people get healed, people fall in love or break apart. Curious to get to know Amsterdam again through your experience.

Teach, Learn, Share
Sure I'd like to learn about your country/culture/passion/occupation/love or hatred/ happy or miserable troublesome trip...
Sharing a beer at home or the bars downstairs under typical sunless Dutch weather might also be cosy.
