Description
Hi! From the Netherlands, Groningen, I welcome you to my profile :)
My name is Denise (26) and I have recently finished my MA studies. After September, I will stop with my part-time job as an immigration officer for a University of Applied Sciences. Before starting with a new fulltime job, I will take some months off to travel.
As I have experienced during my studies and my work, I thoroughly enjoy intercultural communication. Hence, during my travels, I would love to meet people, learn from others about their lives, their culture and their stories. For me, travelling is not about visiting as many hotspots as possible, but trying to grasp a bit of local culture and other people's everyday lives.
About me: I enjoy nature, being with animals, reading books and cooking.
When finding myself with a day off, I often go for a hike with my sister (preferably with the dogs of my parents), visit the beach, hop on my Honda Transalp 600 for a tour, or start baking or cooking (I would be more than happy to make by brownies or chocolate chip cookies for you). I cannot live without tea and spotify. Preferably combined with a good book :)Centres d’intérêt

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Professional:
I have a BA degree in European languages and cultures and an MA degree in communication science. intercultural communication, corporate communication, international relations etc. are some of the topics that I should have some knowledge of and can tell you more about :)
In 2022 I worked for a skischool in Austria for a few months. Here, I experienced working with children. It was something completely out of my comfort zone, both learning how to snowboard and working with children in a foreign language. It was such a wonderful experience though, and it would be nice to experience something similar again.
Personal
My parents are self employed and I grew up in a family where everyone contributed. In my teenage years, I always had a job and I helped in the cake shop of my mother or helped my parents with a variety of household chores. I really like cooking and a year ago I started with a small vegetable garden. I live in a city and there is not that much room next to my apartment, so apart from some tomatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, strawberries, figs and herbs there is not that much that I can grow by myself, but hey, it is a start ;) While growing up, I was surrounded by animals. I honestly cannot imagine a life without being surrounded by them. I am used to dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and horses, but would love to learn more about other animals as well. Taking care of any animal would be lovely.Âge

Mark and Max are very kind and genuine and I feel very lucky to have met them.
