About me
Hi my name is Patricia and I am 40 years old, feeling like forever 29. I have a 13 year old son and a husband. Both no fan of travelling. I really don't understand. But now my son is more independent I sometimes treat myself to solo getaways or wit a friend or family member. I wanna see more of the world. I am a real introvert what makes it difficult sometimes to meet new people, but more easy when the new person to meet is a extravert :D. I am obsessed with reading so I do that a lot and I love our rescue dog Ollie. Not a very good writer myself so if you wanna ask me something ask away!

About me
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 :)

Astrid
Zwolle
Can host for:
7 days
About me
: 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!

Beatriz
The Hague
Can host for:
3 days
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.

Yasemin
The Hague
Can host for:
4 days
About me
Hii, I'm Yasemin. I am originally from Turkey but I have been living in the Hague, the Netherlands for the past 4 years, to pursue a bachelor's degree in international relations :) I speak Turkish, English, Russian, French (though I spoke it quite well in the past, my French has deteriorated so much, so i can only hold basic conversations now :")) and also am currently learning Dutch. I enjoy traveling to different places and meeting different people wherever I go, especially through hitchhiking and couchsurfing :) I like how this way of traveling gives me opportunities to meet and talk to people that I would never get a chance to meet otherwise. I like talking about history, video games, techno, going on meaningles walks around the city with my friends, and just chill hang outs in general. I would say I am pretty low maintenance. Periodically, I pick up random hobbies just to drop them after a few months, so I wouldn't say I have a set thing I love to do lol. I hate capitalism, fascism, ignorance. I guess apathy in general. I am happy to host whoever happens to find themselves in the Hague! Even though I am not Dutch, I am confident in my ability to tour guide so ill give you a tour if im available :)

Hey ladies, My parents background are a mix of British, Irish and French but I have lived/travelled all over the world and feel very much a product of my experiences. I have been in the Netherlands for the last 6 years, (primarily) Amsterdam and previously lived in Canada, UK, US and Southern Africa. I love to explore every city I live in through all of my interests - food/cocktails, art, history, fashion, music, language and culture.

Stay with locals
Stay with local women to see how they live, listen their stories, learn about their culture and have a unique travel experience.
Is Netherlands safe for female travelers?
Amsterdam, Family travel
Traveled to Amsterdam with my sister. Was a lot of fun but the Restaurants somehow were pretty expensive (for a broke student😅) The Rijksmuseum was very interesting and beautiful to look at and learn new things. I would suggest to book a trip on a faerie through the city (you see a lot) and also a stroopwaffel course. Was great fun!
