Hey dear Couchsurfers! I'm Yannick, and live for eight years in Amsterdam now. After I graduated, I didn't bother to stay in this wonderful city, but in september 2015, I will go abroad for 2 years, and stay in Brussels, Copenhagen, Vienna and Madrid, to learn more about urban structures and life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Untill I go abroad, I am doing a little research in Nijmegen (Netherlands) about daily life in the brand new northern part of the city, across the Waal river. There's almost no budget for this, so I can't travel back and forth that much. So I hope I can stay with a fellow couchsurfer for a (couple of) night(s) and have some nice conversation and a good beer!

Interests

I like cooking, making music and sing, reading and enjoying urban life. And I love gardening, cause there's nothing that empties the mind better than that! Since this year, I'm the proud owner of a 25m2-piece of land, where I grow vegetables and spices.
