Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the concept and opportunity to meet and learn from new people.

Planning to be in Netherlands for a year long permit in near future. Looking for hosts for first two three weeks to stay and get acquainted to new country when I wait for my permit paperwork to come and hunt jobs. After that I hope to settle in Netherlands for remaining year being independent myself (and hoping to host travellers and people like me).
