CURRENT MISSION

I flew to America without a plan but with a good feeling that I have to THIS right NOW. So my currant mession is to have fun and find out what made me do this.

ABOUT ME

I guess when I have to say something about myself, the first thing that comes to my mind is that I am a dancer. I love dancing, music, meeting people, having a beer or a glas of vine and just spending a good time.
In the last 15 years I did samba, rumba, chachacha, flamenco, tango and currently I am totally into swing dancing. Through the dancing I have met a lot of people all over the world. For me one of the best ways to get in touch with local people when you are traveling.
Apart from dancing I am studying psychology. Serious stuff. Sometimes too serious for me. But very interesting! When you think that I might start analysing you or people in general, no worries, I am totally not like that! I promise.
I am more interested in using my skills in an alternative way, like becoming a dance therapist or even something completely different. Everything is possible.

PHILOSOPHY

In general: live life every second.
Sometimes I am more successfull sometimes less...

Right now my philosophy is also to give life some space to let things happen. That would meen: stop thinking!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couch surfing in Australia and New Zealand. It was not always with this CS website but I also stayed on a lot of dancers couches I met on social dances.
I had very good experiences and just enjoy it getting in touch with locals on a more personal level.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being on an around-the-world-trip is probably one of the most exciting things I have done. This experience creating my own journey was very challenging and inspiring in the same way.
