Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just joining up, able to host a bit here and there to help out travelers and meet people, and may travel soon myself and be looking for couches in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met strangers and crashed with them, or w/ friends of friends, or even been offered beds from people i've been hitching rides with and it all worked out splendidly. If you know how to read a situation and avoid potentially bad situations, then you can meet some really great people by couchsurfing! It takes a great kind of person to open their home to you, and those are the ones you want to meet. one of my best friends and room mates I met when she ran out of money in Queenstown and got kicked out of her hostel. Was a friend of my friend, so gave her my couch for 3 weeks until she got a job, got some money, and then by coincidence a room opened up in our shitbox house and she just stayed for good!

Interests

Love music: dj'ing, playing instruments, producing electronic music, and DANCING. Love hiking, snowboarding, mountain biking, surfing, motorcycling, hunting, kayaking, fishing.... in general music, dogs, and trees do it for me.
