Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled through Spain where I studied Spanish in Salamanca and where I did some WOOFing in southern Spain. Where I could, I tried to couchsurf...but is hard! Especially with these people who never respond!!
At the moment I life in big house with plenty of space! So do not hesitate to contact me when you are in Nijmegen or surrounding area!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my travel in Spain I had a hard time finding places! Sevilla, Málaga, Granada, Alicante, Córdoba...all nothing. Offcourse I was also there around the holidays, but also before and after. Many people do not even respond! I found 3 places in 3 months. So it not so easy as it sometimes looks...

My first two c.s. places in Cáceres were great! 2 nights at each place! The hosts where very friendly, kind and helpfull! So I had the best time there!
The last place was in Murcia where I surfed 3 nights! This was also very great! The host was so kind and helpfull! So finding is the hard part...when you found one the experience will be nice!
