Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I welcome surfers into my tiny apartment; I surf at other's homes; and I have friends on CS2

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had great times hosting people and showing them the wonderful things that Boulder, Colorado has to offer, from snowboarding and mountains to great local music. I've also had a wonderful time surfing on the couches of people from across the world, from Germany to Portugal to Colorado's mountain towns. These days I live in Atlanta with roommates who wouldn't want Couchsurfers to stay, but I support the CS community!

I have a decent amount of knowledge about international travel, news, and snowboarding. I'm beginning to learn more and more about wines, and I would like to start learning languages (Spanish in particular).

My boyfriend knows a lot about green building and renewable energy and plays capoirea.
