Meet My Friend Lotte

I like to play football (soccer), although I'm not very good. I learn languages, read books and love to watch Netflix.

What language(s) do you speak? How do you say "Hello" in your language?:

I speak English and Dutch, and I understand a little bit of Afrikaans, which is what is spoken in South Africa. I actually studied in South Africa for a year, which is why I know some of the language. I learned French in school, but I wouldn't say that I "speak" French. Hello in Dutch is "Hoi." It's very similar to "Hello" in English!

Do you have pets?:

I have two cats. One of them is a little crazy and her name actually is Cat. She is an inside cat. We also have another cat who lives outside on our patio. 

Have you traveled? Where have you traveled to?:

I have traveled a lot. My family has been to Norway, all over Belgium and the United Kingdom. As I said, I spent a year studying in South Africa during high school which was amazing. I've been back there once since then, and I really miss it. I've never been to the United States though, and I really want to go!

What do you do for work?:

I am a student, so I am studying for my Master's degree in legal psychology at Maastricht University (that's the same master's program that I am doing!). I plan on doing another Master's after this because I'm not ready to start working just yet.

Is there anything else you would like to say to students in the United States?:

I hope to visit the United States sometime soon. I am really excited to go to Walmart and Target. I think that it's so cool that you guys have stores that are open 24-hours a day!
