Couch Information

<< CouchSurf with Travis Brody!

Couch Available: Yes
Preferred Gender: Female
Max Surfers Per Night: 10

Shared Sleeping Surface: No
Shared Room: Depends

I have two leather couches in my living room. There is plenty of floor space, and we can find more room if necessary. Space is not an issue.

I live in my own flat in Brussels. Generally any night is ok to stay the night, and most days I can take you out and show you the city (or at least go out for a drink). I play American Football for a team in Brussels, so we have practice several times a week. I'll also be going to school here in the fall as well. I have two leather couches and a big living room with plenty of floor space. TV, DVD Player, WiFi if you have a laptop. It's in a great, quiet part of town and there are buses that go directly to the city center every 30 minutes or so. I also have a car so I can drive when I'm available. I speak English and Spanish, and also understand quite a bit of French and Portuguese. I'm usually pretty flexible, but try to get in touch with me at least a few days ahead of time if possible (it will only increase your chances that I will be available). If you message me here or e-mail me, I check my e-mail several times a day so I will always get it and respond back to you promptly. Brussels is a great city, so I hope you enjoy it.

Types of People I enjoy

People with style, class, and charisma. People that see me for all that I am and everything I'm about. I enjoy people who are great conversationalists. Those who know their passions in life and can talk about them always impress me. Good listeners, intelligent and considerate people are key too.

There are a lot of really, really great people in life...and I'd like to meet every one of them.
