Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started with CS...
I surfed a couch in Thailand, Melbourne and new-zealand... Just a few experiences, but very nice!!
When I'm back in Belgium, I hope to host as well and to give the same hospitality like I experience now on my travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few months ago I stayed as a guest in the house of one of the CouchSurfing members in Thailand. This is how I discovered how it works. It's awesome to meet local people, talk with them and share ideas.

Interests

I’m interested in meeting new people, discovering other places and cultures and their history. I like sports, for example jogging, swimming, yoga, tennis,… I like to go out and I like to have new experiences.
