Hello, I am Esther :) Living in the Netherlands but spending lots of time in Paris too! I am always in for - a good conversation - an urban exploration including visiting lots of parks, bookstores and viewpoins - jam session - having some time to read my book - spending time in a cafe on my own or with friends drinking coffee (daytime) or beer (evening/night). I would say that I live by the saying that the best things in life happen unexpectedly and (solo) traveling really proved that :) Feel free to send a message if you have any questions about NL or just feel like talking :)

Hi, I'm Sanne (18 years old) and I live in a small village in the most beautiful forests of the Netherlands. I live with my parents and a lot of little brothers and sisters in a house just outside the village. I'm open to meeting up, offering a place to sleep or to eat. If you want I can recommend you the best spots while you stay here. Maybe we can make a dagtrip together.

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.

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.

Hello :) I’m a collection of paradoxes. I love dancing at festivals as much as talking about how to dismantle capitalism. I do a lot of crafts and DIY’s but I also love to go crazy at parties and be among people. I read a lot but can be very silly and comic at the same time. You can’t guess my character just by looking at something that I did! But what matters the most to me, is to be a good human. And that I strive to be at all times.

: Hello! I’m Astrid ( aka the Ginger) a passionate vegan chef and the founder of Culinaire Connectie, where I craft plant-based meals that celebrate flavor and creativity. Alongside running my business, I work as a caretaker for children, a role that brings me immense joy and purpose. When I’m not in the kitchen or caring for little ones, you’ll likely find me out hiking through nature, diving into new underwater worlds, or spinning to the rhythm of Cuban salsa. I’m always up for meeting new people, sharing stories, and building connections over good food and good vibes. Every month, I love hosting dinners for friends, bringing people together through delicious, plant-based dishes that I create. Looking forward to connecting and sharing a meal (or dance!) soon!

🌞 My name is Clem! I am French, from Paris, but currently study in the Netherlands for my master in law. As you can imagine, I can’t stay in the same place for long and have the objective of visiting every European country by the time I’m 25! Only 8 to go in 4 years! I look forward to meeting girls from different backgrounds!
The Netherlands is a beautiful country to travel. I travelled solo and felt pretty safe roaming around throughout the cities. The best place i visited was the small village named Giethoorn which they call as Venice of the Netherlands
