HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

tho not a formal member of the couch surfing community for long, i have spent much time couch surfing and volunteering at backpackers and sustainable communities.
i have, in previous years, lived in open communes in the city, hosting lots of strangers and old friends.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

spent ten weeks training and volunteering at a sustainable community on the garden route.
finding myself out of the comfort zone and into the hart of the natural experience, this experience shifted my horizons, and brought a connection to the natural world, trees, rocks, clouds, animals and humans, that have set me on a new path, more determined than ever to see the new world we all believe in, actually happen
