I'm a Dutch student, currently in Canada to travel a bit. I was an exchange student in Victoria for 5 months, and now I have a some time on my hands before I need to head back home. I have travelled a lot in Europe and I saw some places in BC. I can't wait to see the rest of Canada and the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend recommended Couchsurfing to me as a fun and cheap way to discover new places. I'm eager to find out what's the buzz about couchsurfing and if I like the community I will definitely open up my home to guests as well!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to talk about Cognitive Psychology, Computer Science or Philosophy and their influences in society. I am not a practical person, but I am open to anything! I also love learning new languages and can teach you some that I know. American Sign Language is always a very popular one amongst my friends haha!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a very flexible person and would be up for anything between not talking, chatting and involved discussion about the influences of our knowledge about the brain on our self-perception. I can share European culture charm with you, or if we find ourselves in Europe; Canadian friendliness and the west coast attitude.
