About Me

CURRENT MISSION

explore the world of Donosta-San Sebastian

ABOUT ME

I, Cookie will sometimes disappoint,
make believe and dream about
and never in control
Born in the wrong country been all over the world
Think time is just some relative of distance in a foil
Lover of so many things yet my heart belongs to one
Who calms down by tidal waves before it all breaks down
Who needs some peace of mind a cup of coffee down the drain
Who fears to lose it all yet Iâ

PHILOSOPHY

"head up
heart strong
mind set
hair long"

- believe in yourself.
- world peace is not impossible.
- friendship is forever.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to offer travelers a couch/place to stay for one or several nights, show them the city, hear their stories, learn from them etc..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When i was in Spain i met 2 accidental couch surfers.
They were looking for a hostel and i gave them a room so they wouldn't have to pay and could eat a decent meal. It was so great and lots of fun to meet strangers with amazing stories about their travels and lives.

Then i hosted a girl from norway and a guy from holland, awesome people really, had a really fun night filled with red wine and music.

Hosted a guy from Israel, he was alright too but not so easygoing and outgoing so it was a little harder for me to introduce him to friends and go out.

Hosted a guy from Australia and it was 'far out man'
Music, writing, awesome convo's.
