A calm and curious Dutch traveler who loves nature, people, and discovering how others live around the world. I’m easygoing, respectful, and happiest when I’m hiking, learning, or sharing stories over a simple meal.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

’m traveling to explore new places, but more importantly: to meet people, hear their stories, and understand different ways of life. Couchsurfing feels like a meaningful and human way to connect – not just to sleep somewhere, but to share a moment, a meal, or a conversation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled vertically through Australia

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can help you practice Dutch or English, share stories from life in the Netherlands, or teach you some practical skills from my experience in hospitality and retail.

Learn: I’d love to learn more languages – especially Spanish and French – and get a deeper understanding of local cultures, daily routines, and different ways of living.

Share: A good conversation, a walk, a helping hand, or a simple moment of calm. I’m not loud, but I’m present – and I enjoy sharing whatever I can, from time to stories to a game of cards.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share good energy, a respectful presence, and help wherever it’s needed – whether that’s cooking, cleaning, organizing or just being an easygoing guest. I’m always up for a chat, a walk, or a game of cards, and I’m happy to share stories, language tips, or simply a calm moment after a long day.
