CURRENT MISSION

Go to Spain

ABOUT ME

Friendly relaxed and honest.

I used to own a guesthouse in Quetzaltenango Guatemala, and now live in Leeuwarden Holland where I grew up.

Now I'm looking for new opportunities in Spain and will be traveling there in about 3 weeks. Hoping to find places to stay along the way for my dog Poepie and I.

PHILOSOPHY

There are two ways of looking at something that's beautiful:

1. That's beautiful.
2. That's beautiful I want it.

You don't have to want everything for yourself!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
