Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Increase the community. We already hosted surfers and enjoyed that, we surfed during our road trip in West coast in US and appreciated the great hospitality of our hosts. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We hosted few CSs when living in Paris area; we gave advices for the city tour and shared some moments of our lives like our drama exhibition. We made a break hosting CSs because we now have 2 babies and relocated to Upper Normandy. We travelled through US west coast and were hosted in San Francisco and LA and enjoyed the experience. In LA, our host must go to see his family in San Francisco for an emergency and, instead of canceling; he left us his keys and apartment...that was really unbelievable! We are now planning to visit NYC and Washington and would love to share CSs hospitality! Couchsurfing is not only having a place to stay for free, it's sharing a piece of somebody's life, another culture, another way of thinking....it is a way of diving of the spirit of the country you are visiting! This is definitely a priceless experience!
Music, Movies, and Books
SF Books (Peter F. Hamilton, Karen Travis, Robin Hobb, Stephen King...), SF Movies (The Road, I also read the book), TV series, comedy, theater... Rock, Pop, Jazz, Classical, Latino... actualy we like many kind of music, except electro, death metal maybe...
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Ecovoluntary jobs, spent 1 month in rainforest in Costa Rica. I (Olivier) did ecovolunteering job in Thailand in a wildlife refuge. Skydiving in Las Vegas, that was awesome! I (Florence) did some volunteering in a camp for disabled people in USA (Iowa) and...i loved feeling myself helpful!
