Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first experienced the magic and power of Couch Surfing last year when I went to Europe. The first woman (Magda) that I couch surfed with happened to be going away for 3 weeks but decided to give me the key to her apartment and basically let me live in her home near Stockholm, Sweden for a couple weeks. The trust and generosity she showed me was so rare and amazing that I was hooked on this amazing international community. Since then, I've had amazing experiences at couch surfing gatherings, with others offering their couch or a room, and have also happily hosted several people myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was super lucky to get to sail on a tall ship for six months, which led me into all sorts of experiences and places I'll never forget, including sailing around Cape Horn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Beyond some good conversation and a light sense of humor, I could share my understanding of business and entrepreneurship, especially related to the farm and food industry - if a host were interested of course.
