Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just reactivated my account. For me couch surfing is about sharing thoughts and gaining new perspectives. The reason why i reactivated is also a stance against the current living prices. People should be able to travel without worrying if they can pay for a bed. If we all connect, everything will be fine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tried to find bears in a forest in Wisconsin during the biggest mosquito plague of the last thirty years. Failed terribly. Then tried to find bears in southern Italy during a road trip. Failed miserably again. Did make a selfie with the pope in Rome though. Will probably have to visit Yosemite to make up for the bear thing...
