HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've attended CS events, hosted people in my home in California, and surfed in the US / Canada / Mexico. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've hosted six couchsurfers from Austria, Brazil, New Jersey, New York, San Francisco, & Taiwan. I couchsurfed for the first time in La Mision, Mexico in 2008 at Nathan's wonderful home by the beach. I couchsurfed during a two week trip through Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver, and Portland.
