I am mostly available on the weekends, but can do occasional weekday hosting.

I do not accept any of the following requests:
-copy/paste requests
-same day requests
-people moving, looking for a job or apartment, etc.
-profiles without a photo including a face pic
-unverified profiles
-single night stays

I live in Amsterdam near the center, about 15 minutes walk from Amsterdam Centraal.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new friends and learn about different cultures. Hosting travelers is a very enjoyable experience for me, and I would consider running a hostel when I retire.

• nightlife
