Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first heard about Couchsurfing on a google search, then met a couple in Romania who actually used it and added a positive reference for me. Before then, I had been sleeping in city parks, beaches, and subways, being harassed by authorities. Couchsurfing is a MUCH better alternative, and I've never looked back since!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always something different. Everyone has a story to share.

Interests

Interests are quite free, hobbies cost too much.
Dancing, Gaming, Music, and Traveling of course!

  • dancing
  • traveling
  • music
  • tourism
  • beaches
  • parks

Music, Movies, and Books

Musical influence is mostly John Coltrane, but I look up to so many others as well. Office Space, The Big Lebowski are some favorite movies of mine. Ender's Game series, LOTR, Snowcrash are some great books I've read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On the Turkish/Iraqi border, seeing a line of oil tanker trucks stretching for 50km waiting to get their "black gold." That was a real eye-opener.

Teach, Learn, Share

I learn best by example.
