My name is Sylvia Edelenbos. I'm a 21 year old girl from the Netherlands. I'm a fulltime student Bachelor Social Work and Art Therapies in Stenden University. I'll gratuade next year and I'm not sure what I want to do next. Maybe do something with my art, maybe be a social worker, or just travel the world. It all sounds really appealing to me! :-)

I live with my cat in Friesland, that's in the northern part of the Netherlands. It's a really quiet city. Friesland is known for it's weird language that no one understands, expansive grass fields, the farms, and the really chill, down to earth people.

So, about me.. Like most people in Friesland I'm down to earth. Honesty, punctuality, creativity, black sense of humor are words that would describe me.

If you want to know anything else, don't hesitate to contact me!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I booked a surprise trip with a friend with this organisation. We had to go to the airport and we didn't know where we would end up. This organisation would check us in to the flight and the hostel. We went to Amsterdam and an hour later we landed in Berlin!
