Hello! I’m Astrid ( aka the Ginger) a passionate vegan chef and the founder of Culinaire Connectie, where I craft plant-based meals that celebrate flavor and creativity. Alongside running my business, I work as a caretaker for children, a role that brings me immense joy and purpose. When I’m not in the kitchen or caring for little ones, you’ll likely find me out hiking through nature, diving into new underwater worlds, or spinning to the rhythm of Cuban salsa. I’m always up for meeting new people, sharing stories, and building connections over good food and good vibes. Every month, I love hosting dinners for friends, bringing people together through delicious, plant-based dishes that I create. Looking forward to connecting and sharing a meal (or dance!) soon!

Hi butterflies, I myself like to fly away to other places to meet other butterflies and beautiful people and their colors of traditions and cultures. But I also can really enjoy to stay in my cocoon and would love to welcome other butterflies and people, having a great time with them in my wonderful, social and green hometown. Even though I am born with a muscular disease and I am using a power wheelchair to move around, it absolutely doesn’t make me to stay in my cocoon all the time. On the contrary! I’m looking for the possibilities, and not the impossibilities. That’s my life motto! And independency with a physical disability is also a high priority in my undertaking life. :) Every year I’m making a trip to have a water sports holiday on a great lake (sailing, canoeing, rowing and even water skiing). When I’m in my hometown I love to be with my fellow butterfly friends to have a good fresh (vegetarian) meal and to enjoy their company. I can also really enjoy of the serenity of nature or writing my thoughts and feelings down on paper as poetry.

Hey hey! I'm Asmin! It's difficult to introduce myself in these few sentences, but what I can say is that I'm a daydreamer, friendly and sensible person and according to my friends I am always an amusing, caring, and alive and kicking person. I was an Erasmus student in Warsaw almost 6 years ago and in 2016 summer I worked in NJ, the USA by work and travel program, I finished my bachelor's and masters in psychology. Now I am doing second masters in clinical psychology. I'm here because traveling, meeting new people, discovering new cultures, and trying new things is my lifeblood so to say, and couchsurfing is a brilliant opportunity to achieve these. I was on couchsurfing before. Here is my profile/references: https://archive.ph/eNIEV What I Can Share with Hosts I'm a petsitter I can help you out with your furry babies. I can cook Turkish foods, we can talk about psychology and I can share my memories and experiences that I gained through my travels and anything that I feel that I know well. I can teach you some Turkish folk dance :) Amazing Things I’ve Done I left all the things and I decided to live in Poland without knowing any Polish and anyone. Well, i tried my best! Scuba diving! You will be addicted to underwater after meeting the wonderful world. It is awesome! I tread the boards 1 musical and 1 play in front of more than 200 people. I climbed the highest point of the Tatra Mountains in Zakopane aannd I didn't break my bones. It is an amazing thing for such a clumsy person like me. I hitchhiked around Europe. Oslo to Stockholm, Warsaw to Vienna, and so on. Totally 5215 km btw October '15- May'16. I attended EQC'16 (European Quidditch Cup) in Italy in April 2016. ( I broke my ribs during the games but I don't regret it. It was an amazing weekend!)

Hello! My name is Mirte, and loving travelling! I lived in Ireland for 3 years and made it a home away from home. Recently bought a rooftop tent and I'm planning a big Irish roadtrip in the summer to further explore and visit friends. Can't wait! I am an art teacher at a college and am a volunteer at the local concert hall, so I get to see all the good gigs. I'm open to meeting travel buddies and also looking for someone to mind my cat here in the Netherlands when I'm away.

I'm 33F with autism and ADHD. I've been on Couchsurfing from 2012 - 2021, and on BeWelcome since 2020. On CS I had over 85 references, on BeWelcome I have 6 comments about me. I have been living on my own for 10 years, my cats have been living with me for 6 and 4 years now. I'm a (sustainable) Tourism student, as well as a business student (at 2 universities).
Amsterdam was by far the safest and kindest place I have been to so far. I traveled with my female friend and we had an amazing time. We got lost a few times (public transportation confuses us haha) but recieved so much help from a lot of great folks! Everyone was so friendly!
