Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Egbert is working four days a week and Mirjam is working freelance with irregular days. So sometimes we will be able to do something fun with our surfers and at other times we will only be offering you a bed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wow! As couchsurfnoobs we're kind of overwhelmed with all the requests we get. We never thought saying no would be such a big part of being a couchsurfer. We've only been hosting till now and are going to surf ourselves in July.

Interests

Egbert: Music and music. Besides this I'm a thinker, I always have some new idea or concept to keep me philosophizing. Some of these ideas are awesome and stupid, some of these ideas are awesome and really handy, some of these ideas are stupid. I like to observe the world around me and wonder why things are the way they are.

Mirjam: Music, video, art, fashion... I go to concerts a lot , rehearse with my band, play board games and videogames and like to cook for my friends.
