ABOUT ME

Hello there.
I'm jacky, half german half english very outgoing and as I stated before, I am currently checking out different cities to find a new home for myself.
Coming from a small city in the Netherlands where I studied for 3 years and was very deprived of everyday social interaction, I know just enjoy chilling with people, not doing anything in particular but just enjoying each other's company. I love going for walks and exploring new cities, cooking for people and eating good meals and of course I also love to go dancing. On the other hand I can also just be on my own and entertain myself, so as a CouchSurf guest I think I am quite easy going.
I looove meeting all kinds of people with different backgrounds and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I am once again in the position of a surfer and not a hoster, just because I don't have a home yet ;) But I love hosting people, I have had sooo many fantastic experiences and meet ups with super interesting and fun people from all around the world and can't wait to continue meeting great people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I was travelling I couchsurfed with a lot of people in many different countries and met the most generous and kind hearted people, which I am so grateful for!
I also hosted a lot of people while I lived in Brighton, where my good friend and I were able to give back the CouchSurfing love and share our big house with lovely travellers.
