Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Was introduced to CS by my friend, Tessa, who has quite a lot of positive experiences with CS. Love the idea that you can really get to know more about a country by staying with locals and on the other hand you get a chance to show travellers around in your own city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at the moment

Centres d'intérêt

Love to swim (synchronized swimming actually, don't judge it really isn't that silly :)), coaching synchronized swimmers, skiing (as long as I don't crash again), laughing, hanging out with friends and family (in a pub, on a terrace, on the beach or just at home on the coach), watching a movie.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Always listen to music, be it jazz, pop, rock or classical music. What kind of music depends on my mood.

I watch a lot movies. Ones that I really love are; le fabuleux destin d'amelie and donnie darko

I love too read, but sometimes I'm a bit too busy and restless to pick up a book. So often the weekends and vacations are my time to read. Some of the books I loved to read (often more than once) are: to kill a mocking bird, harry potter, lord of the rings, komt een vrouw bij de dokter (a dutch one).

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Out of the jungle in a Gibbon reservation in Laos taking of on a zip line, suddenly speeding over a beautiful valley and within seconds I'm standing in a tree house about 150 metres above the ground. Terrifying, thrilling... amazing!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

As a coach I love to teach my swimmers, be it synchronized swimming or respecting each other. At the same time my girls (swimmers) teach me things too, like not being prejudiced. I feel that this applies to all the people I meet. That's why I hope I can help people respect one another and I try to learn something from almost anyone I meet.
