我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Usually willingly... or eventually persuaded and always to the best of my ability

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Cross Country Motorcycle travel adventures in the 70's thru the 90's and a lot of Military moves. Host as often as possible, well worth the moderate effort and the renewal in faith of the value of fellow humans in each case.
