I'm a 39 year old English teacher who still can't really stop travelling. No kids, but working as a teacher at an Intermediate Vocational College, International Business studies, in the Netherlands. I've taken six months unpaid leave to explore this end of the world (Canada and US) to take in the culture and see what makes people tick.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On couchsurfing to meet locals, since that is the best way to get a feel of the country, stay away from the tourists ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a good laugh and love to help out, make myself usefull. Love to cook, and take care of people. In the past I helped out on farms in Australia and NZ in exchange for accomadation, so not afraid to get my hands dirty.
