Before you hit that request button:
- I don't like leeches. I am not a hotel.
- I don't like those 'standard' messages. Try to be personal and read at least my profile.
- I prefer to get requests a few days before the date you want to come over. Of course there are exceptions, for instance: when your host cancelled last minute and you have to sleep under a bridge.
- I can host one person. I can maybe host two person (the odds of accepting your request won't be in your favour, but you can try). More than two is 'a no-go'

I work as a high school teacher (subject: German). I really like my job.

I consider myself not as a Dutchman, but as an european.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people around the globe, and to travel more without much money.
I like to hear about the adventures people have and the reason people travel.
