Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

September 2013. I have this profile for 4 years now and I totally forgot about it. So sorry for the people I did not reply. I will be more active from now on and in one month I will have my own couch to share :-).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I actually only couchsurfed on the floors of my best friends around Spain, in Zaragoza, Valladolid and Huelva and in Sofia, Bulgaria, by accident.

In return I hosted my friends in Granada when I was living there and the Sofia-couple here in Gent, Belgium. I showed them around the beautiful old town, we had coffee, lunch and amazing conversations.

Interests

all kinds of poetry, small cinemas, hidden restaurants, writing long letters, dancing with my eyes closed, pick-nicks, coffee

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read and I always have tons of library books lingering around. Yet I never manage to finish them because I get caught up by the people around me. Luckily some, I did read. Dostojewski, Federico García Lorca, Borges, Rilke, Goethe, José Saramago, Victor Pelevin, Roland Barthes, Kundera and halfway in Nabokov's Lolita.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrise on a boat on a lake in Albania.
