Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted around 20 people and i really like it! Also played sometimes chess with people or just had a tea in Amsterdam.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some interesting persons yet, some slept at my place, others i met for seeing the city or a game of chess. Its nice to meet all kind of people, and i think we can all learn from each other! Its interesting how the combinations work together every time, its a challenge to make the most out of it!

I meditate every day 45 minutes, run 3 or 4 times a week, and pick up chess again. Quiet a busy and sportive live. Trying to develop myself as a human being.
