A naval architect, originally from Turkey, moved to The Netherlands for work, and experiencing Dutch life in Vlissingen, Zeeland from a Turkish expat's perspective since December 2015.
CURRENT MISSION Jack of all trades: working as a carpenter and photographer, renting out a holiday home and always open for new opportunities. Turned my hobbies into a job so it never really feels like working. PHILOSOPHY Treating others the way I want to be treated.
We’re Chris and Gaby a couple from Ecuador and the Netherlands who have traveled together through 45 countries across Latin America, Asia, and Europe We’re currently taking a little pause and living in the Netherlands, but our love for exploring never stops. For now, we’re planning shorter trips and would still love to connect with other travelers and locals along the way. I have strong leftist values because I believe in social justice, equal opportunities, and solidarity between people, no matter where they come from. For me, Couchsurfing isn’t just about a place to stay ,it’s about exchanging perspectives and ideas too. That said, I’m always up for interesting conversations with people who see the world differently, as long as there’s mutual respect. Some things, like human rights, equality, and fighting discrimination, aren’t up for debate. If we share similar values, we’ll probably get along great! And if not, all I ask is a respectful discussion.
Hey, how is it going? I'm a peruvian guy living in the Netherlands for 6 years already, in the south of the country, I want to help upcoming travelers because I know by experience that a little bit of help is always important when traveling to new places!! I love travel, meet people from all over the world and learning new things everyday, I love sports, music, and dancing. I love to dance salsa and bachata. Vous pouvez aussi m'écrire en français! Também falo português Ik spreek ook Nederlands Feel free and just text me.

CURRENT MISSION I like to travel. There is so much to see in this world. ABOUT ME A great part of my working life was in education. I retired as a museum director in 2006, being 60. It gave me the opportunity to travel and work abroad. I have had all kind of jobs, scientist, teacher, school director, director of nature reserves, even politician. I have been teaching in China, Senegal, Switzerland, Indonesia, Portugal, South Korea. I love to work in our garden, actually a small arboretum. I am a book lover, our house is crammed with books. PHILOSOPHY Everything will be alright at the end
Openminded and friendly person. Like to travel and meet people. Mother of the most wonderful boy in the world ( 2022). Just for the record.. I never accept a friendrequest if I never met you in person. So dont send one if you dont actually know me
ABOUT ME Enthousiastic, kind, love to be on my own, but also interested in other people! Not realy humoristic. :)
Hii! I’m Demi and i’m a student living in the Netherlands :) I’m currently doing my Bachelor of Social Work, i want to connect people with each other because sometimes life is hard and we need each other✨i love listening to music, reading, being in nature, animals (that’s why i don’t eat them), and meeting new people! When i have the time (and money) i love to travel, especially by myself. I find myself in these unreal places and meet people i never thought i would meet and i just love that feeling. It’s also scary sometimes, but i feel like we have to challenge ourselves to find our inner strength. When travelling, i’m very used to staying in hostels, but i came across couch surfing and i would love to give this a shot. Hopefully i’ll get to meet some new people and they can give me some insights and tips about their country :) looking forward to meet you🌞🌸
Je suis un jeune homme qui aime la philosophie la littérature et la confiture :)
I live in Vlissingen all my life. I like to travel around the world and looking for New adventure.
I am a 24-year-old Turkish Cypriot. I’m currently a tourism student in the Netherlands. I started solo travelling in 2021 and have been to many places since then. Along the way, I began creating travel content, and I’m still doing it. I’m a tennis coach and a part-time DJ/music producer.
We are openminded, enthusiastic, easygoing, sharing and caring. The house is along the sea dyke with a private and community garden; go for a swim, pick veggies and have fun in the kitchen for dinner. There is wifi, a skateboard, music (guitar and trumpet), (tandem) bikes and (bicycle-traveling)- books.
