Fun-loving, adventure-seeking traveler who wants to soak up all the magic there is to be found in this world (and create some wherever I go!). I'm an artist and writer who travels the world with an ever-expanding suitcase of stories to share and all the love to give. You can check out my portfolio here: tanjavandeer.com

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I have a voracious appetite for life -- always curious to plunge right in rather than take the conventional touristic routes which often lead to generic journeys and thwart the unexpected. Motels and hotels are cold, impersonal and offer little insight on the culture I yearn to explore. One-on-one encounters are far more satisfying.

Intereses

Creating and appreciation Art in all its forms, reading, writing, exploring, meeting people of all slices and walks of life, questioning everything, debating, collecting taxidermy, dressing up for no particular reason, living hard

Always keeping it surreal
