Groups I Belong ToCouch Information
Couch Available: Coffee or a drink
Preferred Gender: FemaleMy couch is in a small town, Zwolle, in the north of the Netherlands. Zwolle is a nice town to visit. There are a lot of medieval buildings in the citycentre. I could show you the centre, park and the river. Also i could take you to the underground of Zwolle. www.myspace.com/diyzwolle
I live in a studentapartment. It's not big, but i have my own bathroom and kitchen! I have a small, grey, couch from the give-awaystore. It was for free and it almost falls apart!
My household is vegetarian, also my couch is. So don't bring meat to my place. If you are really desperate for meat, you could go downtown. But if you're a herbivore you're lucky, caus we have health- and natureshops with loads of vegan food!
The first thing you'll see when you're entering my room is an ash-tray. I'm a smoker, i smoke tabacco and weed or hash. So if you're asmatic it is not very healthy to stay at my place. But if you're interested in smoking weed i could show you my favorite coffeeshop and we could smoke a joint there or at my place.
One of my favourite drinks is beer. Ha. Now i'm sounding like a junkie-alcoholic. But noo, i'm just a student who loves to party.
So i'm a student. I'm studying to become a teacher for the primary/elementary school. It's my passion, i really love working with children. Next year i'll working at a school with disabled children, with a low iq or behaviourproblems. I'm looking forward to it.
So i hope you could understand i'm pretty busy with studying. But in the weekends i could show you the city and maybe i could show you something of the country.
I have blankets for you, but it would be nice if you could bring a matrass with you.
As you can see i only can host one person (at least two), because of the small room. But if you are with two or three i could fix a sleepingplace for you at my friends place in one of the squats of Zwolle.
And i'm definitely available for a cup of tea and show you around the city! And if i'm not you could contact my friend Pimm, see friendlist. She's cute! Friends (7)

Personal Descriptionlara, lari, larry, larie, laurentiaCouchSurfing ExperienceMy CouchSurfing experiences were awesome! I met Jiri in his hometown in Pilsen, Czech Republic. He showed me around and we drunk beer! Steph came to my place and i went with her to a festival for the weekend.
At weekends my friend and i both can travel for free with the public transport. So we would like to travel around the country for the weekends and go CouchSurfing.InterestsI like (spontaneous) adventures. Most of the time i walk on sandals, flipflops or on my bare feet. Fridaynight is bonfirenight near the river, in the woods. I love the color green. Freshness. Meerkats, butterflies and rats are my favourite animals, but i also like caterpillars, bugs, elephants, lions and (small) spiders. And i don't eat my friends. Oh and Pimm is my best friend (you should contact her too!). I'm a geek, cuz i really like studying and reading books all day long. Ha! Studio Ghibli makes the most awesome movies. My favourite is Howls Moving Castle. Hmm, and now about the music. I like really different styles from gypsy to popmusic, from dubstep to tekno, from reggae to hardcore, from angry girl music to experimental acid noise and stuff like that. I just love to danceeee~!Types of People I enjoyOpenminded people, who love traveling and adventures.Teach, Learn, ShareIf I can't dance, it's not my revolution!
If I can't dance, I don't want your revolution!
If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution.
A revolution without dancing is not a revolution worth having.
If there won't be dancing at the revolution, I'm not coming.Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org ProjectCouchSurfing rocks!Locations TraveledTRAVELED: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland (Republic of), Italy, Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Switzerland, Turkey, Uganda, United Kingdom
