Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love how couchsurfing is a real example of the goodness of people. Here's a Ted Talk that mentions couchsurfing as an example of using the internet as a random act of kindness http://www.ted.com/talks/jonathan_zittrain_the_web_is_a_random_act_of_kindness.html

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed once and it was a great experience. I'd love to host but never had roommates that were cool with it. I'm always up for meeting new people and I tell EVERYONE about couchsurfing!

Interests

I love people, food, bikes, volunteering, food, beer, jogging...

• dining
• beer
• entrepreneurship
• social work
• volunteering

Music, Movies, and Books

books: Lots of self help nonfiction on spirituality, leadership,psychology, relationships. I love short stories and the occasional chick lit novel.
music: everything, but I'm mostly drawn to rock/folk/alternative genres.
movies: cheesy romantic comedies --the Holiday was the best! all the frat pack movies, movies that make you think. I always fall asleep during movies I watch at home, I can only make it through a flick in the theater.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching groups and individuals transform as they are in the act of helping others.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm crafty!
