PHILOSOPHY

es gibt nichts gutes außer man tut es.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted many people in my homes in Amsterdam and Berlin before. In China I shared a dorm room with a girl from Mongolia so I couldn't host. But atm I have more space. If you want to experience a nice student town in the East of the Netherlands, write me!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A really short trip to Barcelona- (Did not see Gaudi)
An evening out in Strasbourg incl. a night- piquenique at Rhein river
a dinner in an African restaurant in Bruxelles.
A coincidental host experience: my guest mistook Oldenburg for Osnabrück and came anyway
A Canadian girl with many relatives that visited me in amsterdam and made my parents laugh
And an amazing visit to a Bristol cinema
