About Me

I identify as female because that is my gender. I live with my cat in a nice house with a garden. I am very open to anything and fell in love with the Middle East when I visited Israel and Palestine. Been there twice already and the 3rd trip is planned. I love dancing, yoga, talking and having fun. Just wandering around a city is what I love. See where it takes me. Often into the night 😎 I am not easily scared which is both a curse and a blessing. "There is no such thing as chance."
P.S. I don't accept blind friend requests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I'm a cheapo 🤣

Interests

Often I go out alone and meet loads of people. I like younger people because I feel younger myself 😁 But I'm not an age discriminator 😘 I really love dancing and do it everywhere and all the time 🦵🦵💃 Meeting new people broadens your mind and I'm very interested in learning about other cultures, especially the swear words. I already know maderchod in Hindi and kos immak in Arabic 🤣

Music, Movies, and Books

Haven't watched a lot of TV lately but I loved The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Best series ever: The Sopranos (eej, here he is!), Breaking Bad (Say my name), Game of Thrones (You know nothing, Jon Snow!), Friends (18 pages, FRONT AND BACK!)' Shitt's Creek (Alexis, what's this I'm feeling? I don't like it!). Stranger Things (You know what to do, Dusty bun). It's a sin (I will not die).
I love dance music (house, elektro, techno, trance) but also other types, like The Black Box Revelation, Arctic Monkeys, Admiral Freebee. Fred Again is my favourite band at the moment and their concert at Pukkelpop was awesome! Stromae is a genious and always captures the time spirit perfectly. Yves De Ruyter ftw! 😎😎
Books: The circle - Dave Eggers, And the Mountains Echoed - Khaled Hosseini. Liefdesbang - Hanne Cuppen, Harry Potter, obviously, and Stephen King as a counterweight.
Movies: The Dude abides 🤙 The Coen Brothers rock. E.T., Forest Gump, Catch me if you can, Dune (Thimothée Chalamet is fucking hot), Drive (Ryan Gosling is fucking hot), Black Swan (Mila Kunis is fucking hot). You can guess why I like certain movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did yoga at the Hamas checkpoint and half of Gaza knows by now. Apparently that's frowned upon there 😳
Was at the Dead Sea in an abandoned hotel where a singer was shooting a video clip. Me and my friend were asked to join. It's obviously the beginning of a long and successful career as a background dancer 😆

Teach, Learn, Share

Have fun, be kind, respect your and other people's boundaries, take care of your mental and physical health. Dance and sing! Be kind to animals, also to insects.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stimulating conversation until alcohol is involved. Then the level drops significantly. I am very clean and structured until... you've guessed it. Then I lose all my shit. Once I lost 2 bank cards, my driver's license and my public transport subscription in one weekend. At different moments and I was sober at the time. So you draw your conclusions if you'll have me stay over 🤣
