Hi guys,

I am from Amsterdam, the Netherlands, but I currently live in Mauritius, where I'm studying the social sciences (though you can also find me "studying" on the beach for considerable amounts of time).

Friends generally describe me as bubbly and passionate, and I particularly love the experience of meeting someone new and learning about who they are, what they like, and how they live their lives... I guess I love the feeling of realizing that there are so many ways the "human experience" can be lived!

I also like connecting people and hearing about their respective journeys and future plans, so I can definitely lend a listening ear, an entrepreneurial network, and crazy stories from a life lived in the deep-end - at least so far.
