I will visit New York City from 10 until 18 april. It would be awesome if I can meet new people and find some couches to stay for one or two nights. I hope you can help me out guys! You are of course very welcome @ my place in the beautiful city Heemstede (5 minutes from Haarlem and 20 minutes from Amsterdam by train).

ABOUT ME

Honest, good listener, easy going, nature lover, animal friend, vegetarian, traveler, interested in people and their stories. I love meeting new people and exploring the world. I can be a serious person, who thinks a lot and likes to have good conversations but I am also a person who knows how to party!

PHILOSOPHY

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer you a couch in Heemstede City.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I didn't host yet but some of my friends did and it was fun! I hope that I will find a lot of couches (not outside in a park or under a bridge haha) during my trip, so I can invite people back who took me into their places and 'reward' them for their kindness. Nice meals, a nice couch, beach parties and trips to Amsterdam are waiting 4 you ;-)

Interests

Environmental issues, Animal Welfare/Rights, European Union, Labour Migration, Business Ethics, Sustainability and of course less heavier things in life such as: American Classic Cars, movies, music and lounging at the beach.
