Curious, enthusiastic, accepting, sometimes awkward, nerdy female. Currently a medical student and part of a Global Health movement. I like learning languages and exploring. I also really like books, science, cooking and trying out new food.

I am a second year medical student at Leiden University. I am part of IFMSA-Leiden, a local chapter of an international medical student association. We do all sorts of cool projects to improve Global Health. From a Teddy Bear Hospital for kids to watching Dr. House, LGBTQ campaigns and medical internships. I mostly love it because I get to meet people from all over the country and world who are passionate about medicine and want to make a change for the better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like experiencing new things, meeting people from all over the world and listening to there stories and views of the world. I love travelling, but I can´t travel a lot right now due to my studies. I would therefore like to bring a bit of the world to my home by meeting up with travellers.

I like showing people around, because it opens my eyes to stuff I have grown used to. I get to experience it again with them. I have done so in the past as a buddy for medical interns.
