Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I Have done a substantial amount of traveling and when I sit down to talk to someone back home about what I "did" I always end up talking endlessly about who I "meet" instead. It seems apparent to me that the most important thing about traveling is connecting with new people in new environments. I want to know you. I want you to know me. Lets share our couches and our lives.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I will be having my first one soon!!!

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the first time I saw a video of my play being performed in Santiago, Chile I knew I had to get out of my own culture and appreciate the way others interpret my understanding of the world if I plan to be a playwright.
