ABOUT ME

Its quite hard to say right? Im open-minded, listener and talkative, though it really depends on the person with whom Im having a conversation with! I can talk seriously, but laughing makes us together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the past I had many friends from foreign countries, where I was sleeping and they slept at my place.

When I knew about CS, I immediately thought, thats it! Now Im hosting and looking for a couch. Showing any type of my city: hot-spots, the beach, but also just streets, new architecture, bars, .... Last but not least: The Hague is at the beach and there are a lot of dunes, its great, no sounds of the city in a few mins, only of the sea and the wind. For the rest: The Hague is one of the greenest cities in The Netherlands, so parks? A lot!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The people I hosted, where I was as a guest, the events, they were all amazing!
