About Me

I am a third year medical student from the Netherlands. I am always open to new experiences and still have the enthusiasm for small things like six year olds have :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just really love travelling and this is a great way to actually get to know the lifestyle of locals, not just see the main attractions

Interests

I mostly love romance books and movies. I am also slightly addicted to my Netflix account... Favourite series of mine are (among others) Jane the Virgin, Orphan Black, Outlander, Pretty Little Liars, RuPaul's Drag Race...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was on the Burj Khalifa, Grand Canyon and Borobudur.
I did volunteer work in Croatia for two weeks with nine other students. I still can't believe we got along so well, even though we were practically strangers!

I also have many crazy stories, like accidentally insulting a famous Dutch actor (he had it coming though), asking out a guy in church, a weird French kid proposing for me to some insane hot German...

Teach, Learn, Share

My knowledge involves mostly medical and psychological subjects. I am always up to learning new things though. I enjoy good talks about just anything, my interests are very broad and I love to think about life and happiness

What I Can Share with Hosts

Dutch candy and recipes. I can also help with cooking and tell you lots of funny stories ;-) If you want to learn Dutch, I'll always help of course. I will share all the knowledge and skills I have
