Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING hoping to find shelter along the interstate as i make my way west to sun valley and SLC mid-november. back in the day i could pull it in one shift, but i'm getting too old for that nonsense. looking to make some friends as well. hotels can be depressing while rolling solo. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE a noob to the scene. i joined this month out of curiosity in regards to my upcoming road trip, and was blown away by all the great people offering their couches up to strangers out of pure benevolence! you guys rock!!
