Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have been hosted and hosted a few times. But it is a great way to meet people from the city you are visiting and couchsurfing is amazing! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have stayed on other people's couches a few times and it has been amazing and such a cool experience! I love to be able to experience the local culture of the city I am couch surfing in and this helps when you have a local to show you the ropes.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I hiked the Annapurna Circuit in October 2014 in Nepal. I didn't use any porters or guides, I just went with two friends and we trekked for 25 days, it was the best experience of my life and such a great way to explore a country.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am always eager to learn and try new things so whatever floats your boat count me in!
