Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been one of the first members of Hospitalityclub and Couchsurfing. I've organized several HC- and CS-meetings, like a beach event, a multicultural tour and a hammam meet-up.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had lots of guests through couchsurfing and hospitalityclub. I met such nice people in France, Germany, Poland, Turkey, Slovenia, Serbia and many other places. Some of my guests and hosts became unexpectedly friends. Most of my experiences are with being a host myself (after 100 guests I stopped counting). And before I knew about these websites, in East Europe I met so many people who offered me spontaneously a place to stay while I went backpacking on my own. See my profile at HC and Bewelcome: tijs.

Интересы

I like to be active in nature, to go jogging, walking and cycling in the forest. I love doing yoga, swimming, outdoor fitness and enjoy the sauna. I listen to classical, jazz, etnic, and ambient world music. I'm not into the gay scene; I used to go dancing in clubs and beach-bars, but that's an exception now. I love cooking healthy organic, vegetarian food and making pickles. I have my own vegetable garden and chicken. With my caravan or tent I go to naturist campsites.
