About me

Hello there! I'm an adventurous person from New Zealand and I've recently moved to the Netherlands! I love circus, particularly aerials. I enjoy performing biking, dancing, skiing, hiking, travelling (obviously), sewing, sketching and cooking/baking. I also have been getting into modelling and love to collaborate with creatives on projects! I am looking to meet cool new people both in the Netherlands and further afield! 🍊💃🌿☀️ Unfortunately I don't have my own place yet (I'm staying with family) so I can't host at the moment. Hopefully I can host in the near future!

About me

Hi girls! Traveling to Australia (Cairns & Sydney) in October and will go to NZ on a working holiday Visa from November on. In either places would love to meet up and share stories and go on adventures <3 I absolutely love wildlife and always like to be close to the beach and the ocean/sea as its my happy place :) I love food, I love to eat it but also love to make it - I love working in the kitchen and aspire to grow further in that direction. I really like history and philosophy as well and when traveling like to learn about other cultures and ancient wisdom

About me

Hello, I’m Didem based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. I love to meet new people and socialize. Im trying to understand myself, other people and cultures. I love the feeling of being surprised If I learn, see, seek, and hear something new. Politics got me vegetarian for years :) and of course the love and respect I have for animals. Sometimes I make music and read a good book.

About me

Hey! My name is Freya. I finished my first year of the Bachelor Dance in Education at Codarts Rotterdam last year, but this year I'm taking a gapyear. I'm working a lot as a dance teacher, which I really love, but also keeps me from travelling outside school holidays. That also means I want enjoy the breaks I do have to the fullest! In fall I made my first solotrip to London and this winter I'm visiting Salzburg. Although I actually enjoy spending time alone, I'm excited to meet new people and very open to exploring things together or just hanging out:)

About me

Hi, my name is Cat! I’m new-ish to travel, haven’t always been in a position to do it but I’m taking some first steps towards some new goals I want to set for myself and overcome some fears in this area. Hoping to get to know the world and myself, see what beautiful things and people are out there, and make some great connections and friends. Perhaps even find some new friends to travel with. I live in Rotterdam with my younger sister, my girlfriend, and three cats, and I am currently aiming to become an architect/city planner.

About me

My name is Manon (35) from Rotterdam. I've been hosting and meeting up with people trough couchsurfing for years. But this weekend a female traveler that I hosted recommended this app to me and I must say I love the Vibes ♥️ I love to solo travel and will mostly be on a roadtrip around Europe when on vacation. When im home I host travelers on couchsurfing and hopefully soon here. About me, I love seeing bands live our going to a festival and am a major foodie. Recommendations for restaurants our local bands are verry appreciated. I love to meetup with people on my solo trips to get to know the country and the culture more. For me that could be something simple as just meeting up for coffee and a chat, our joining me for on the roadtrip to go an adventure 🌳🌊🍸🏖️🚙

Is Rotterdam safe for women?

Denise

Has its unsafe-er areas like any city, but generally I would live in every neighbourhood. None of them are that bad you can't go, just means some weird people will catcall you. Generally very safe, would def r commend for solo female travellers.

I lived in Rotterdam for a year and a half and never felt particularly unsafe, moving around on bike also helps with this as you’re never stuck anywhere. But even walking I’ve never had a problem though I mostly stayed in residential and central areas
