Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have enjoyed a couple excellent surfing adventures so far and feel inspired to return the hospitality. The picnic functions are a brilliant idea and a great way to have some fun. For me, the CS picnic in Paris gave me an opportunity to play frisbee for hours near the base of the Eiffel Tower :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have extensive traveling my whole life and have found CS with hosts the best way to really feel you are part of a local experience that expands greatly over just being a tourist...

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a wide variety of music, with heightened interest in Depeche Mode, OMD, Rotersand, And One, John Barry, Hans Zimmer, and Ennio Morricone.

There are so many wonderful films, but I especially enjoy stunning visuals, inspired performances, clever symbolism, and a rousing soundtrack. My favorite directors include Sergio Leone, Luc Besson, Ridley Scott, Stanley Kubrick, David Fincher, and David Lynch.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
