Tilburg

Tilburg is a city located in the south of the Netherlands, near the Belgian border. It is the sixth biggest city with approximately 200,000 inhabitants, including 13,500 students. Tilburg has city rights since 1809 and became famous for its wool industries.

Couch Searching & Surfing

Tilburg has its own CouchSurf group. There are over 200 CS-members in Tilburg. Since many people decide to just visit the big cities in the Netherlands there are not many CouchSurfers looking for a couch in Tilburg. Therefore it's relatively easy to find a host. However, you should still select the hosts you find most interesting and make an effort in requesting a couch. Please note that during some events, e.g. Roadburn Festival, there is a huge number of visitors. It's recommended to request early (well, not too early).

Since September 2009 there's a 100% CouchSurfing-loving house, called 'Casa Merode'. It has an official sub-group of the Tilburg CS-group. It's one of the places in Tilburg with a big amount of couches.
