Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm in a transitional period so cannot host, but would like to meet people and find a place to stay for a few days while I am looking for an apartment in Bologna.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted a few people when I was living in Fiji and I stayed with a couple others. All experiences went well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have just finished a two year stint living in a isolated village on a small island in the Fiji Islands. It was an amazing experience and I can talk about it plenty, but I guess that's a better thing done in person.
