Description

Hello there! I hope you're having a lovely day full of good vibes and smiles!

I come from a beautiful blend of Dutch and Indian roots — two amazing cultures that have shaped who I am in the most heartwarming ways. Having lived half my life in both countries — I treasure them both dearly! 🌼

From India, I carry the warmth of emotions — the joy of sharing meals, soulful conversations, colorful traditions, and the deep sense of care for others. From the Netherlands, I embrace an active and balanced lifestyle — sports, personal space, tidiness, and a fun splash of partying now and then! And yes, I absolutely love discovering new cultures too!

Over the years, I've volunteered in over 10 activities — from gardening and caring for toddlers and animals to helping out at sport/culture/hostel events. It’s taught me a lot about adapting, being present, and giving from the heart.

What drives me? Simply the joy of living! I find happiness in the little things — helping animals, peaceful walks in nature, getting lost in a good book, marveling at art and history, and connecting deeply with people.

If my story resonates with you, I’d be delighted! I’m here to explore, grow, and make life a bit brighter — with a good dose of humor too, promise! 😄

Thank you, P.
