About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Seeing some more of China before going back home in July

ABOUT ME

I'm a person who enjoys doing things thoroughly. I've studied Law and Chinese at Leiden University and am currently living in Beijing for one year before starting with my masters. I hope to get to know Chinese culture by meeting locals on my travels though China.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was told about the CS initiative by a friend and it seemed like a fantastic way to meet people while travelling. So far my experience with CS is rather limited, but very positive!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met a CS'er in Beijing who became a good friend that has taught me a lot about Beijing (food, history, nice places). I hope to meet more people on my other travels through China.

Interests

I'm particularly interested in sports, hiking, music, salsa dancing and food. I love playing basketball (even though the smog in BJ can be scary) and would love to learn to play volleyball.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

我去过好多国家,享受各种文化。希望我一生能享受更多国家的各个文化。

Teach, Learn, Share

我会帮你忙提高你的英文水平或你的荷兰语水平 ;) 自己想提高我的汉语水平,跟当地一起出玩儿应该是最好、最方便的办法。
然后我的一个心愿是学习一点儿化!
