I recently came back from my 15 months cycle journey through Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. I mainly slept in my tent or couchsurfed. Throughout my journey, I was welcomed by countless people in their home, showered and fed. Having experienced this incredible kindness and generosity, makes me want to give back and share the love.

For hosting, I prefer shorter notice for requests to stay, as I am not a planner, but a spontaneous person. I have a flatmate so I have to be respectful of her space and I can only host for one or two nights in the living room.

I like outdoorsy things, like going to the beach, camping and lots of sports. Cycling, SUP, soccer, beach volleyball.

I like to disappear in the world of books and music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing, as I would like to listen to other people’s stories and see how they are doing life
