Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting people. I have met some amazing persons I would otherwise have never met through Couchsurfing. I do not mind last-minute requests, as long as they are somewhat personal.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Until now, I hosted about a dozen wonderful people at my modest room in Rotterdam. I surfed a few couches, but not too many.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in San Francisco, California for six months. SF is most definitely the most amazing place on earth to live. I left San Francisco, but it has not left me.

I would love to meet some French-speaking people. I haven't spoken French since high school and I would love to pick it up.
