Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not currently hosting on this profile as I live in the same house as another (more experienced) couchsurfer. If you want to stay with us please send a request to him: http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/georgepayne/.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted a couple of travelers in our house but I have never stayed at other people's. Hopefully this will change in the future.
