Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i have space and lifestyle conducive for couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

met a surfer in passing. seems almost surreal this exists in such a functional form.

hosting couchsurfers is probably easier than having friends or family over.

Interests

glassblowing, bicycling, movies, people at art shows, the art too.
finding new music. watching other peoples dogs.

i like to google everything. diy projects. invent stuff.
