CURRENT MISSION

Visiting DC for the Cherry Blossom Festival

ABOUT ME

I lived in Japan for 3 1/2 years and love to travel. I'm new to CS but very interested in it since I run a carpooling website with a lot of similarities.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe while living in this illusion that it's important to treat each other well, contribute to society, and be good stewards of the Earth, its habitats and creatures. I like new experiences and different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just joined CS to find a place to stay for a trip to DC. My website, eRideShare.com, has been used by Couchsurfers to arrange travel ridesharing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't done this before; when I backpacked in Europe and Asia I stayed mostly in youth hostels and cheap hotels. I was in DC recently and stayed with my second cousin but she's expecting a baby and won't be able to host this time.
