PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, play harder

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the opportunity to meet fellow travelers interested in learning more about life and the journey we are all on.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Host and surfer. However, I am becoming more reluctant to host. I view the CS experience as an opportunity to host a friend I haven't met yet. I AM NOT A FREE HOTEL ON YOUR ROAD TRIP ACROSS THE US. I get multiple requests a day from people who view CS as a chance to find free hotels. Please don't contact me unless you feel we can have a lively, engaging conversation for several hours. If you want to stay in my house for free and eat my food, at least take the time to read my profile, write me a decent request, and make some effort in being a kind, considerate guest. I will treat you well as a host.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. I loved the beauty of nature, but never experienced awe inspiring works made by humans. All that changed when I visited Istanbul and walked inside the Hagia Sophia. The majesty and history of the place overwhelmed me.
