PHILOSOPHY

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a friendly, open minded person that can show you around Berlin, take you to little Jazz-clubs, huge electro-clubs or the opera. Whatever you like. :) As you see, I have wide interests.
I want to contribute to this amazing cultural exchange, and help keep couchsurfing going.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couchsurfing experience has been amazing. I am blown away by the friendliness, open-mindedness, trust & generosity of all varieties of people. I am glad to see that some people still believe in the good in people.
Some examples: Me and my good friend stayed in Bunol with a very generous gay couple, who actually run a bed & breakfast, but to couchsurfers, they offer their rooms for free.

Then I stayed for almost a week with Gabriel in Valencia, who was the perfect host. He picked me up from the train station, we cooked together, he gave me a tour of the city. WOW. He treated me like we'd been friends for many years. Amazing!!!

And then I stayed with Laurens, who lives in Utrecht. After that, he came to my birthday party in January 2009, and stayed for a weekend with his friend, which was so much fun! Then in march this year, Matze & Maike and I went back to visit him for Queensday and it was great again.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I lived in Bremerton, WA when I was 16/17 for a year and went to High School there. Being an exchange student in a foreign country is the best. Experiencing another culture at such a young age is so overwhelming and forming. I'm very thankful for this amazing experience. It has really made the person I am today. And I have been couchsurfing since 2008 because meeting new people from all over the world broadens your horizon and sharpens your perspective. It's a gift.

The coast of Washington State and Oregon, the old highway 1, is a beautiful road to drive down. I did A road trip from Seattle to San Francisco and it was truly beautiful. I would totally do it again, I think I definitely will do it again sometimes in this lifetime of mine.

教，学，和分享

Don't go the easy way, but go the right way. although last will usually be a lot harder, it will be the only way that can make you happy. I live this philosophy. I believe that it will pay off in the end if you always work hard and do whatever you know is right although it sucks at the moment. You will be a happy person in the end. Happiness is my goal.
