HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I am currently studying abroad for a semester and am interested in the idea of couchsurfing and sharing stories while borrowing a couch for a night. My couch is currently unavailable because I myself am traveling but I am interested in signing up as a host when I return to Portland, OR.

I have slept on the top of a mountain and watched the moon rise and set then looked to the right to see the ocean and the left to see the mountains. It was probably the most peaceful moment of my life so far. I have also run a marathon. I was awestruck at the end that I was still alive!
