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!

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 :)

Nistelrode

I live in the south of the Netherlands, close to major cities. Nistelrode is located in a wooded natural area, ideal for hiking, cycling and horseriding. Cities are easily accessible by public transport: ✅Amsterdam 1.40 hrs ✅Nijmegen 0.35 hrs ✅‘s-Hertogenbosch 0.37 hrs ✅Eindhoven 0.38 hrs Nistelrode is a very safe place, day and night. I have a daughter and two sons, all in their twenties, and together we’ve seen much of the world. My daughter still lives at home but travels often. Because women’s safety worldwide is under threat, I want to contribute to a safer world by opening my home to you.

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.

: 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!

Yvon
Deventer

Hi! My name is Yvon and I'm from Deventer in the Netherlands. I'm a holistic integration coach. Artist. Recovering perfectionist. Spirit junkie. Lover of travel, board games and intimate conversation.
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!
