HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING We each have our part to play in making this world what we want it to be. I like to offer my place to people passing by and help them allong the way. When I couch surf, it's to learn how people live elsewhere and get a better appreciation for the local culture. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I first learned about couch surfing from a pair of hitch hikers I picked up one night and fell in love with the concept! Since then I have hosted a few guests and have enjoyed it. It's not in my nature to ask anything of anyone, I would rather be helping others. So sometimes I am a bit reluctant to ask.

Music: I'll give anything a try! I prefer Indie rock, and can't seem to get into dance and techno styles of music, but they have their place I guess. Matt Mays and El Torpedo, Arctic Monkeys, Modest Mouse, Hey Rosetta! are just a few examples... Books: Non-fiction. An Imperfect Offering by Dr James Orbinski, A Short History of Progress by Ronald Wright Movies: I like movies about true stories or movies that make you think.. Into the Wild, What the Bleep.., A Beautiful Mind...
