Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people from different backgrounds, get to share a bit about my city and learn from others.

I have informally surfed many couches across the US, Switzerland, and Australia, and hosted many on my own couch. I used couchsurfing for the first time in Malaysia and had a great experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love non-fiction books, "A Long Walk to Freedom", "Three Cups of Tea", "Mountains beyond Mountains", but I can't leave out "Catch-22".
I like sharing all kinds of music. Hopefully I'll have some new stuff for you, and you can share your favorites with me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to climb, snowboard, wakeboard, and survive in the forest.
I want to learn to cook better, and how to whistle.
