ABOUT ME

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing because I don't want to stay in soulless hotels; all the same. I want to be able to experience a unique place that has been designed by the person living there. I have made wonderful connections with people that I have stayed with and this invaluable experience cannot be obtained elsewhere. I have learned so much from my guests and hosts and in the process, I have also shared so much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time in Amsterdam we were talking about homeless people and how they would live in Amsterdam. All of a sudden, we met a person about 30 years old who asked us for a lighter. After talking to him, we discovered he was homeless. We started talking, and he showed us how he survived and how he slept in the boats on the canals. It was quite an experience!
