Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only surfed one time and had an absolutely great experience. My host was so awesome that I cant wait to get back home so I can return the favor one day.
As a surfer: I rarely have concrete plans when I travel. Usually the "plan" is to just get out and about and see/experience what I can while I'm there. And I'm more than happy to do that by being a part of what you got going on or by heading out solo and explore if your busy. No worries either way.

As a "Host": I'm new to Thessaloniki and am always up for meeting new people/playing tour guide to the best of my ability, going to listen to music, or lounging and having a drink.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spent one night in Xanthi, Greece and it was one of the coolest nights I have had in Greece. I met so many interesting and kind people in one night all because of CS.

Interests

Meeting people, New expereiences, listening to people's stories, sports/games/fun.
Music runs my life, I always need to have some way to listen to the music I love and find new tunes to keep me rocking
Playing Djembe or other percussions.
Movies, All different kinds of movies. The occasional cigar. Playing Fifa
