Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am traveling to present an educational/ agro productive project this summer at NYU and I would like to know the culture as much as possible. I find Couchsurfing a great way to exchange really closely a cultural experience. Besides the idea of providing and obtaining help on accommodation or tourist guide, it's a great platform to get a cultural immersion while traveling.
Music, Movies, and Books
Love to discover new bands, novel and poetry reading.
