Currently I'm traveling for three months with my boyfriend through the Caribbean and the United States! We have met many nice fellow travelers and welcoming locals on the way, and we hope to engage with even more in the remainder of our journey. Being new to couchsurfing, this might be our next adventure. Will you drink a beer with us?

In the Netherlands I have almost finished my masters Book Science. My boyfriend Steven is a consultant (for a big American IT company). We have just started living together in Amsterdam. We definitely intent to host some couchsurfers there when we get back from this trip! Because of work, we very much prefer requests that are not that far in advance, up to one week before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We're used to staying at local people's places through AirBnb. However, with Couchsurfing we hope to witness a new kind of hospitality in which we are not only welcomed for the money, but also for the fun! Staying at your place, we would enjoy talking to you. Hearing stories from the other side of the world is amazing. We would be happy to tell you about Amsterdam and the Netherlands in return :)
