Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We live in a 3 bedroom appartment. Me and my lovely housemates offer a beautiful couch in our living room, open for anyone who wants to visit Antwerp.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In november I met some couchsurfers in Egypt that were very nice, they showed me around Cairo and made my first days there a real pleasure. When we travelled through Tanzania we slept at Jay's house in Arusha and that was great too. In Istanbul we stayed with Müge which was lovely and I did some couchsurfing in Belgium, exploring my own country. So only good things from my part!
