Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

well, i think its all about give & take,
so:
1. I like to travel a lot, I like to meet new people, and Im not the 5 star Hotel kid, so this couchsurfing idea sounds great to me!!

2. I live right in the middle of Belgium's finest and most beautiful city, a city that attracts a lot of travellers, and i've got a studyroom/second bedroom rarely used, so I think its cool to give people to oppurtunity to make use of those advantages ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It all started in 2008. First about a year as a host, meeting great interesting people in the heart of Bruges. Later i surfed some couches myself during my one month solo trip through the Rocky Mountains. Great hospitality, great people, fond memories...
Now i'm back after a rather long break in New Zealand.
