Description
Hii! I'm Izaline :)
A traveler from the Netherlands, interested in seeing more of the world!
I grew up in Curaçao (a small island in the Caribbean) but moved back to the Netherlands when I was 11 years old. I've always been interested in learning more about different cultures and seeing more of the world. After high school, I took a gap year and started traveling. I stayed with local families, traveled around, and had a lovely Workaway experience. This all filled me with new energy and insights, helping me grow as a person while learning from others. When I came back home, I worked as a barista to save up so I could continue traveling. And now, my new adventure is about to start!
A few things that bring me peace and joy are being outside in nature, horseback riding and being creative in different ways, such as drawing, painting, photographing, making my own jewellery and cooking—I adore it all. I'm deeply interested in self-development and spirituality. I practice breathwork and meditation regularly and would love to deepen my spiritual practice during my Workaway stays and travels :)
One of the things I cherish most while traveling is learning about the local ways of life. I believe there's so much we can learn from one another! I'm very open-minded and love trying new things. I’m excited about the possibility of sharing stories, skills, and laughs with new friends along the way :)
Looking forward to meeting you!Interests
