CURRENT MISSION

To help fellow travellers

ABOUT ME

I am married to Claudia (username here : claudiaab_from elsewhere) and we live in a small town near Brussels with our two daughters. We both have a long experience with Hospitality Exchange and would love to meet you or help you plan your trip.

I am a member of several Hospitality Exchange websites, including BeWelcome, Trustroots and CS. At the moment most of my time is spend on www.bewelcome.org but I host through all networks.

-------------------------------------

I'm an easy-going guy, happy with my life but trying to improve it for others, I love to socialize and meet different cultures and people.

My passions are photography, languages, culture, music and movies.

PHILOSOPHY

WYSIWYG

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am trying to help travellers, no matter what Hospitality Exchange community they belong to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm always happy to help people travelling. It doesn't matter if they are from CS, Bewelcome, HC, Servas or any other Hospex organization.

I am however very concerned about the recent changes in the Terms of Use and the Privacy Disclaimers here at CS. The new website also does not work so well for me, so it might take some time to respond to your hosting request.
