My name is Emiel van Well, I am 24 years old and I am a student at Leiden University but at the campus in The Hague. Here I do the course International Studies where I am focusing on the region Latin-America. I live in the middle of the centre in The Hague, next to the Grote Markt, together with one roommate. I would say I am a friendly guy who likes going out, and have a good time. I love to explore different cultures and meet new people on couchsurfing, it is to invite people over and share stories. I don't host people who do not socialize and only come to sleep. Couchsurfing for me is a way to learn and talk to people about their life. Also it is mostly because I'm up for having fun. I hope you can enjoy life as I do and everybody is welcome :).

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
To invite people over to my house if they need a bed and eventually sometime, somewhere maybe people could help me. Helping people while you get the opportunity to meet new people and make new friends, discover new cultures and see as much of the world.
Musique, films et livres
Music: I agree with almost everything, from metal to reggae and more. And always open for new music! Books: At the moment I dont really read a lot, but I do love reading. Love Wilbur Smith, Stephen King and I find fantasy genre very fun to read. Movies: When I was young I worked in a videostore so I have watched a lot of movies. However I do not like horror movies and will never get why people like them. Who wants to be scared?
Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
Voluntary work in Africa for three weeks. It was in the middle of Burundi with our teacher who grew up there. Me with 10 others got money together for surrounding villages to help build a water well. We also gave classes to the students. Lets make it two: Travelled through Latin America (Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay) and did a 4 month human rights internship in Cusco which was amazing and I will always look back on it.
Enseigner, apprendre, partager
If you do something for someone, you get something back. Life is an adventure, live it do not waste a moment.
Ce que je peux offrir à mes hôtes
Honestly, whatever they want but if I would appreciate one thing, that is to learn from each other. Cultures are different everywhere and you only have one life and I want learn and share everything I can. My room is 24 square meters so there is space but not a lot of privacy. If you are sociable you will have fun.
Mes centres d'intérêt
Simply put, I just want to have the feeling to be surrounded by people with an open mind. I'm always up for making new friends.
