Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Just moved to Brazil one year now. Easing my way back into being more active I host mainly. I surfed once as I am not able to sleep easily outside of home and have to have good aleeping arrangements. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE It was better in the beginning and is still great however many people nowadays just want a cheap place to stay and put no effort into even completing their profiles. More people need to understand that someone is allowing you into their home and they need to to know as much as possible about who they are letting in. I JUST IGNORE REQUEST OF THOSE WHO PUT LITTLE TO NO EFFORT IN THEIR OWN PROFILES. In the few years hosting, have I hosted some wonderful people from around the world.All of then I can say we bonded and really enjoyed each others company.This is a great thing to experience.I recommend it to EVERYONE.

Just moved to Brazil but can tell you more about my hometown in the United States and its history. I have a lot of travel experiences as well as being very active in Couchsurfing for many years I love to lean about cultures I know little about. Ive hosted quite a bit as well as I do read about places Ive never been and have been constantly.I find politics of a country fascinating
Lo que puedo ofrecer a los hosts
All of my knowledge of Atlanta and a fun time with my many friends from around the world. My travels in the Middle East while in the U.S. Air Force Im a good cook so Ive been told and love to do so when time permits.
