About me
Hi, Im Leyla! From the Netherlands. Bit shy, but once you get to know me, watch out for my sassy side. I love travelling so much, but I can be anxious and chaotic sometimes, so I love to meet other women to feel safe and to make some lovely connections. And to prove myself that I can!

About me
Hiii! I'm Brazilian and have been living in The Netherlands for 4 years :) I share a flat with my (Swedish) girlfriend and we often travel together. I'm a political economist with interest in sustainability and feminist theory/literature/organizing! I'm not super much the party type but you can always convince me to go to a costume party or karaoke. I am super affectionate and love sharing moments with friends, old or new I do quite a lot of hitchhiking and couchsurfing and that's my usual preferred form of traveling! I live up to the latina standard, which means I am super warm and get a lot of energy from socializing and meeting new people.

About me
Hi everyone! I am Ylvali, a 22 year old from Sweden currently studying in The Hague. I love to meet new people and to be surrounded by light hearted and curious people, especially other women! I travel to learn about the different ways life can be experienced and this is what I seek here as well. I find travelling infinitely more interesting when you have locals around to peak into what they like and hate in a city, how they socialize and meet their friends, what their favourite spots to eat are, and everything in between. As I’d like to think that liking to travel is not a personality trait, my other hobbies consist of all things creative- I paint, draw, make jewellery, do graphics and more. And also designing and occasionally giving out tattoos to friends but that’s a story for another day. I also love reading and writing and going to the cinemas, especially smaller independent cinemas! If you’re open to going on long walks that will take double the estimated time because we can’t stop talking and laughing, swimming in lakes and waterfalls, chasing sunsets, we will probably get along well!!! I would love to connect and visit or host you:)

About me
Hi butterflies, I myself like to fly away to other places to meet other butterflies and beautiful people and their colors of traditions and cultures. But I also can really enjoy to stay in my cocoon and would love to welcome other butterflies and people, having a great time with them in my wonderful, social and green hometown. Even though I am born with a muscular disease and I am using a power wheelchair to move around, it absolutely doesn’t make me to stay in my cocoon all the time. On the contrary! I’m looking for the possibilities, and not the impossibilities. That’s my life motto! And independency with a physical disability is also a high priority in my undertaking life. :) Every year I’m making a trip to have a water sports holiday on a great lake (sailing, canoeing, rowing and even water skiing). When I’m in my hometown I love to be with my fellow butterfly friends to have a good fresh (vegetarian) meal and to enjoy their company. I can also really enjoy of the serenity of nature or writing my thoughts and feelings down on paper as poetry.

Is Netherlands worth visiting?
Based on 162 experiences
Amsterdam, Family travel
With my sister in Ams🫶 A vibrant city, and we stayed in a really nice home (the stairs were WILD but it’s really how houses are built there). I strongly recommend visiting Ams and trying local food as much as possible (local markets have some really good stands)😋

Safety depends on the neighborhood. I loved food courts, especially the one near De Pier where you can enjoy panoramic views. I recommend visiting Scheveningen area and Peace Palace in the city center. I loved drinking coffee near the canals and in the Koekamp park where you can find animals like deers and squirrels.
