HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Hosting people who are traveling through the area, and hopefully surfing some couches on my travels. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Over the years I've stayed on couches of many friends in travels across the US and in Ireland. My band performed in Germany and Belgium in 1995 where several gracious people hosted us and I've hosted many traveling dancers and musicians, friends and friends of friends, as well as wayward hikers on the Appalachian Trail, which passes nearby here. I've had a number of couchsurfers stay here over the past few years and have had nothing but wonderful experiences, and I look forward to doing more hosting and surfing in the future.
