About Me

After my first trip to Iran, and having been tempted to use Couchsurfing i was to hesitant and it was my first trip with just a friend of mine at 18 moving south in Iran, you can understand the achy fingers back home.
However when i left i felt i had experienced something i had yet before, but it was lacking a certain touch.... and by that I ofcourse mean the local touch, who knows the little extra's and who make everyday things that are incredibilly hard, allot easier giving you way more time to enjoy the ultimate way.
I have one great Couchsurfer to thank for reading my message and helping out whilst in Tehran the second time with my Mother to be precise.
Later found out he was accepted to a Dutch Universtity far away from where i live, but i offered all help, transaction of money etc... I had to find a room with him, sort out with the Bank all the troubles when coming from Iran, together with a wonderful network we built whilst over there with other Couchsurfers for us to stay and a few others we met just to build a network. It was really exchaustive but a good experience.
