One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If we meet we can talk for hours about amazing people, places and things that happened, like:
-hitch-hiking with ambulance, fire-brigade car and caravan- all in one day:)
-cycling in China
-eating ants
-how to survive for little money at huge music festivals
-how to accidentely become a star of Italian TV etc:)

Teach, Learn, Share

Couchsurfing is all about sharing.All the encounters with CS members so far were all about learning something new for me-about persons,about life,about cultures,about practical things and skills.I believe there are plenty of ideas and stories we can exchange. Well, I can show you as well how to make an origami book,teach you unpronounanceable Polish phrase or prepare Polish meal or drink if you want some practicalities:)
