Description
Travel and exploring new places brings me happiness! I come from a family with heritage from a variety of nationalities and cultures (my dad is from The Netherlands and my mom is from America), and I love getting to know and explore new places. I love taking part in the local part of life in different countries as much as visiting the most popular tourist sites. I currently work at a school and am excited to explore the world while on breaks.
I'm originally from the United States but live in the United Kingdom (London).Interests
