Hello! I am a Dutch neuroscientist living in Germany, currently finding my way in the world of academic research. I love research, including its highs and (very very) lows. It teaches one a good lesson about perseverance. I am calm by nature, but I love good company. In my free time I enjoy cooking, singing and hiking. Last year I also discovered yoga, which has also taught me a lot about perseverance (and has made me fit, bonus!). I also love dancing, I take urban dance classes for the fun of it.

Basically my goal in life is to push my boundaries when I can, even though I am scared shitless along the way... But I still can't watch horror movies.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I knew about Couchsurfing for a long time and always heard really positive stories. By now I have tried it a couple times with my sister.

音乐、电影和书籍

My favourite movie ( it's probably a bit of a cliche here on the website) is Into the Wild. It has stayed with me from the moment I saw it in the theatre with my mom years ago and I still find it so inspiring.

My favourite author is Haruki Murakami. I don't read a lot these days even though I like doing it, when I have a copy of one of his works I put everything else aside.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

教，学，和分享

I love to learn and talk about food and cooking! I could teach you some yoga moves and nothing would make me happier than to sing a harmony.
