About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to be able to say at the end of each day: " what a wonderful day ! "

ABOUT ME

I consider myself fortunate to have lived on a beautiful island in Greece for over 25 years with only 3000 inhabitants, which has formed me the way I am today. Currently living in The Hague, Netherlands. I am a good listener and try to give time to people when they like. I have been a guide for many years and met up with all sorts of people.

PHILOSOPHY

to live this life as good as one can. to leave this life/ earth as good as one can for our children and grandchildren ,so they can live their life as good as they can.......

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

by offering time, ( if not working ) and a couch, ( when free) to show you around, to try and let people understand that live is not only about work and making money, but to share our cultures with each other.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Teach" is a word I do not favor so much, but I hope I can try to make people understand that everyone is different and therefore unique. Learn about other cultures, ideas, religions, experiences and respect those. Share what we can from the above mentioned.

What I Can Share with Hosts

free time if you like and if free ... a place in my small house to stay as a guest
