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 currently interrailing with my girlfriend around Italy Austria and Switzerland! We had a lot of last minute changed in our plans and are mostly now looking for last minute couches and meet ups. Together we just did a summer school in Athens where we shot a documentary about community organised cultural spaces in Athens and since then we have been on the road for over a month to celebrate my girlfriend’s graduation! Hit us up!! A little about me then: 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:)

Hello! My name is Mirte, and loving travelling! I lived in Ireland for 3 years and made it a home away from home. Recently bought a rooftop tent and I'm planning a big Irish roadtrip in the summer to further explore and visit friends. Can't wait! I am an art teacher at a college and am a volunteer at the local concert hall, so I get to see all the good gigs. I'm open to meeting travel buddies and also looking for someone to mind my cat here in the Netherlands when I'm away.

Hilke
About Me
Hi, I’m Hilke, a 18-year old from the Netherlands. I finished high school one year ago and wanted to have some other adventures before I would start my studies at the university. I live in a small village in the Netherlands where we have a few animals. I love travelling and especially the places I’ve seen and most of all the people I’ve met so far. I already did a few workaways in different countries and went interrailing with my friend. I would love to meet other people along the way to make some new friends, share interests and to have a good time. I am very curious and always want to learn new things such as languages or cultures. In the beginning I can be a bit introverted, but when I feel comfortable around you I can talk about a lot of things.

Utrecht, Solo travel
I visited Utrecht several times already. Alone, with friends, with my dog and without my dog. I have a small dog and she is easily stressed when too much is going on. Around the central station it's busy. But the mall there is amazing! You can shop there like a queen! 🛍️ You can also see the "parking garage" for the bicycles when you go there! Definitely worth a visit. 🚲 I am vegan so I sometimes have trouble finding something to eat, but Utrecht did great with food. Hot Pot at "Momofugu" can be vegan and it tastes amazing. Also when you are in the area of Utrecht you may take a walk there. A few shops, train and bus station close by too! In another area you can see the canals! Feels like Amsterdam but less busy! The "Vegetalian" is a restaurant I can recommend too! They offer vegan, gluten free and more! 🍕 Overall I would say that with and without people around me I felt safe. The parking garage and parking in general is expensive, still less than Amsterdam tho!! Few areas I would avoid, if its night time, but at day time? I wouldn't have a problem going anywhere in Utrecht!

Hiii, I went to the Hague in the Netherlands. I went to see a friend who told me the Hague wasn't that safe... I felt okay and didn't have any problems. The beach there is nice, you can surf sometimes:)

About Me
I am a student in Marburg, learning German before my Master degree. When I have time, I like to see new cities in Germany and around Europe. Usually I have time on weekends because weekdays I'm at Uni and then in library busy studying. I'm an ambivert so I tend to be really chatty at the right time with right companions. I like reading Sci-fi novels. My hobbies are drawing, claying, puzzling and most of the time reading. I love to take a stroll in new cities and lost myself occasionally. I am a curious person who has a big appetite about almost everything in our world. Like to meet new people and learn their perspective about different things.
