Hi there,

My name is Brigitte and I'm married with my loving husband Koos. We have 4 grown up children and we became grandparents last year. I grew up in a big family where I learned what hospitality is. We always had people visiting and never said we are having dinner now, see you soon. We always shared and that's what I love about life. Sharing with people.

I love to cook and have people over. I worked as a assistant for years, but last year my husband and I got the opportunity to work on a religious boat as a cook. We quit our jobs, sold our house and jumped into this new experience. We didn't want to spend the rest of our lives working and rushing to our jobs and don't connect with people. I'm so happy we made this decision and now we have time to travel and relax a bit more.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

My daughter went to Canada for 3 months and came back with many stories about how great couch surfing is. She met a lot of people and she convinced me to host people too. I never did this before but I love to help people and share stories over a glass of wine.
