Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am travelling in Asia now, so I hope to stay with people and make friends. Next year I like to begin hosting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couch surfing, but I have been backpacking Asia for the last eight months. Its been a very rewarding experience and be far the best part has been the friendships I'm made along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On the Everest Base camp trek I thought the view from Kala Pattar overlooking Mount Everest at 5545 meters elevation was pretty breathtaking. Scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia as pretty amazing too. The coral and fish were really beautiful.
