我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Somewhat reluctantly, since CS decided to become a for-profit corporation...
But happily too, for the idea behind it all and the thousands of exciting people connected through it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted people from Belgium, Spain and the Czech republic in France, and was hosted by a Pakistani, two Americans and a Chinese in China.

兴趣

Reading - writing came later, as a much more difficult, and much more potent way to read.
To see and experience the world as fully as the concentrated visions in these books made it seem possible will take a lifetime of play and work, travel, antsy settlement, conversation, scratched notes, etc.
I will never get bored!
