我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had incredible, sometimes life-changing experiences surfing in England, France, Scotland, Spain, Slovakia, Brazil...... I've really felt a spectral connection with some of the other CS travellers that I've met.

I've also hosted wonderful souls from all around the world at my homes in Canada, England and Brazil.

I attend CS events like karaoke nights, pubs nights, open mics, hiking meet-ups, and Free Hugs.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Ran in the first ever Human Race at Wembley Stadium in London, England. I finished the 10KM race through the streets of London by sprinting back into Wembley to "Don't Stop Me Now," by Queen. Unforgettable.

Hitchhiking from France to Spain... so many incredible sights, feelings and moments of challenge.

Taking a boat right up to, and underneath Iguaçu Falls. INCREDIBLE!

Going backstage with Ben Harper in Paris, France, Bourges, France, London, England, and Boston, USA.

教，学，和分享

I want to learn as much about this wonderful crazy world as I can... and I want to learn it first-hand. By traveling with open eyes and an open heart.

I want to learn several MORE languages.

I can help people with English, and maybe a little French or Portuguese. I can show you why ice hockey is my favourite sport and teach you how to play (I travel with my hockey stick). I can teach you how to do the robot (poorly), or play guitar or ukulele a little.
