Hi all - yes, I am a couchsurf newbie, BUT I am planning a my very first Eurotrip and would love for CS to be a part of it. I'll be in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and Rome. I look forward to immersing myself in the idiosyncrasies of each region which hopefully will involve the people, culture, history, food, coffee and some drinking. I think it's amazing that people use this site to let others into their homes. As a guest, my priority is to make sure all of your house rules are followed and to show respect to your home. I'm comfortable with as much host interaction as you'd like - If you're willing to show me around town - amazing; if you'd like to have coffee once - great; if you're too busy but can offer up a couch - that's fine as well! I appreciate whatever you're willing to offer. :)
