ABOUT ME
In the summer of 2008, I finished my backpacking excursion around Europe. It was a wonderful experience.. Couchsurfing is the major way how I met such wonderful people while on my trip. I had hosts in Holland, France, and Italy. It was all amazing and I can't wait until I can couch surf again. If you want to hear stories, just ask! Every new trip opportunity is a new chance for me to meet new people and share my experiences..
PHILOSOPHY
You live and learn. While you live you mine as well do what you want and give life a chance. You never know what will come about when you enter into the unknown.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I couchsurfed all through Europe and was able to meet wonderful people. I am willing to host or be a tour guide. I have a busy schedule and a roomie, but hopefully hope to host soon!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I was hosted by people in Woerdon and Utrecht, Holland... Melun and Paris (the outskirts), France... and Rome, Italy. These people took me around the cities they hosted me in and did far more than I ever thought was possible. I had such an amazing experiences that all I can do is brag about my experiences. I will use couchsurfing in the future and hope others can find experiences with me as I found with others.

Teach, Learn, Share
Couchsurf. Don't be afraid. I was hestitant at first but it was all quickly washed away with my first host. From there on, things only got better. I learned so much about other people's cultures. I wasn't afraid to ask questions and hoped that they would as well. I am going to be a teacher in the near future and never realized how much this experience has taught me about other cultures and about my own. You can only learn from your experiences and luckily and had such positive outcomes with my travels. If you have any questions, just ask.
