Dear couchsurfers!
I've noticed Amsterdam is a very favourite couchsurf location, so once I put my profile on 'accepting guests' I'm kind of overladed with messages. Unfortunately I can't host everybody and I also need some time by myself, so I need to say 'no' quite some times. Sorry about that in advance! Wish I had a bigger house :)

Others have put it into words so beautifully, that quoting them is the least I can do:

"Everything you want is on the other side of fear" Jack Canfield
"Let's not try to figure out everything at once" Unknown
"Trust that when the answer is no, there will be a better yes down the road" Unknown
"...and every time I hear that line I remember that love, like art, must always be free" Fom Sense8, a Netflix original series
"Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards" Søren Kierkegaard
"Sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast" Alice in Wonderland

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Being able to travel low-budget and give that opportunity in return to others! Meeting new people and exploring the world. Not only by traveling it, but also by inviting it's inhabitants in my house, and myself into others :)
