First off.... I go by CT. Not Craig. If you call me Craig in your message I will probably reject your request CURRENT MISSION When I travel, my mission is to explore the world's best spots. I also want to see all the best sights I can. Whether it is in every tourist book or a spot only locals know, count me in. When I host, I want to provide a safe and fun environment for my guests. I can facilitate tours around the city or provide recommendations. While I am completely fine with my guests doing their own thing, I also expect that my apartment be treated as something more than just a free hotel. ABOUT ME I am fun and outgoing. I have moved around a lot in my life. I also have embraced my wanderlust. I love to see new things and explore the locals' scene. *****I do have a kitty, so if you're allergic, please don't request. Please put this 😻 emoji in your request so I on now you've read this and understand! **** PHILOSOPHY Live life to its fullest. Let love grow where it can. Embrace the ideal that each of us is on his or her own journey PREFERENCE I lived in LA for a year then Austin, I have now been in St Pete for a couple years. I love showing people my town. Preference will be given to guests who are staying between 2-5 days. It takes a lot for me to prepare my place for a new guest. While it seems like a quick one night stay is low maintenance, it is actually very difficult for me. It requires a lot of scheduling considerations, arrival/departure logistics, and clean/prep time. Obviously, I am not saying I do not accept 1 night stays, just know that I prefer more time with guests. Additionally, if you are under 21 then I will probably hesitate in hosting you. I will make exceptions. NOTICE Unless we have mutual friends that are helping coordinate travel or we have met in person, please do not send a friend request to me. I am happy to talk through trip logistics using messages. But for the safety of CS users, I do not want to be part and party to people with whom I have no affiliation. I do not treat me Friends List as a collection.

La mia opinione controversa più assurda...
the best conspiracy theories keep turning into "news" stories.
Perché sono su Couchsurfing
I enjoy meeting people, and I love being a tour guide. I feel like we all need to work to put good out into the world. I want to do my part. PURPOSE Please realize that I use Couchsurfing as a way to share experiences with travellers. Couchsurfing, in my opinion, is not meant to be a free hotel or just a place to crash while you look for a job. If you are one of the following, then you might want to look for another host or try AirBNB/Hotels.com/hostel: -Coming to Tampa Bay for a job interview -Needing a place near the airport for an overnight -Requesting a ride across town (try Uber) -Escaping a loud roommate to study -Living host to host while you work in Florida -Receiving treatment nearby -Requesting long-term accommodations -Searching for a place in town and realized that hotels are expensive NOTE OF SEMANTICS If you send a request that is one of these, I will probably reject it with a short reply. This may seem rude, but I would argue that not reading someone's PURPOSE statement about their own domicile that you are requesting is even more rude. I do not intend to say "I am sorry," for I am not sorry that other guests read my profile and requested properly and got accepted. I am not sorry that I am already hosting people. I am happy to host those current guests. I think by forcing people to say they are sorry we are discrediting the process.

I a sober now. But I know a lot about beer: I worked in a brewery as a tour guide. If you want to talk about this, great. If you hate beer, that is fine too. I love to explore the globe and share those stories too. I would enjoy talking through these with you. Also I know a lot about computers, cars, music, and movies. If something else is your passion, let me know.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
Entertaining stories, fun coffee shops. Kava bars. Fitness events.
