When I was a kid I would beg my parents to let me stay at my friends' and cousins' places. There was nothing wrong with my bed but it was exciting to hang out with others and know that it wasn't all over when the sun went down. I would get my friend/cousin to speak to my parents on my behalf and they would try their best to convince them that I would be well behaved. I would remind everyone that I didn't have any allergies and that I knew how to cook toast. I had an impressive track record and my success rate was second to none. Fast forward 20-something years and I'm still at it. I'm interested in surfing on your couch. I have perfected the craft of making toast with any toaster. I "brighten the corner" and my hosts wish all their guests were like me. If you're not sold by now, here's my trump card: I can write songs and play instruments as well. I'll write you a song if you want. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I really need more references, too - so take me on!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

UPDATE: I've revived this thing because now I'm also hosting! Let me know if you want more information.
I like hosting people and showing them a good time. I've been to places where hotels and airbnb weren't good value for money. There were times when I wished there were other people to help me out a little bit, even if it's just by providing a couch for me to crash on. If that's you, let me know. Ask away about either London or Hong Kong.
