About Me

CURRENT MISSION

playing!

ABOUT ME

I can be as passionate about things as I can be bored of stuff. I'd say I am quiet curious, always been (that's what my mum tells me at least), easy-going, spontaneous, dedicated, unorganized, repulsive, fearless when it comes to throw myself into unknown situations...and I like to believe that I get along pretty well with all kind of people. And I do suck in describing myself...

PHILOSOPHY

To state anything here would actually make me feel restricted to whatever it'd be. I have certain ideals, but far too dynamic. I'd have to change this section every day...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to spread love and peace as much as I did in HC ;-) When I am at home I am always willing to host people, when I am abroad I try not just to score free accommodation, but to open my heart for the people I am staying with and share a good time. I also use Couchsurfing for organizing events and questions I have about certain places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted and been guest a lot via Hospitalityclub and without any website, just by meeting people. Had quite a few guests in Rotterdam via Couchsurfing and surfed with a fair amount as well. And my experience is absolutely positive! It always amazes me how close one can get in a really short time if both parties open themselves for new perspectives.
