Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to Couch Surfing. My brother (a very experienced surfer) just introduced me to it when I surfed a couch with him in Glasgow. I've been dying to try it again and am trying to break in to the wonderful world that is Couch Surfing. I don't have a couch of my own to offer up at the moment because I am on the move, but as soon as I'm settled back in the USA you better believe I'll have a couch up for grabs. As for now, I'm a broke college graduate trying to see as much of the world as I can before my money runs out and I have to head back to work, so I would really appreciate you lending me a couch so I can stretch my travel time out just a little bit further.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only surfed once as a tag along with my brother. We stayed with a wonderful gal named Caity in Scotland and I had a great experience. Can't wait to get more to more places and meet many more interesting folks.

Interests

I am always down for anything new and exciting. I love being outdoors and going on adventures. There are a few core things that I will always get excited about: Soccer, cooking, maps, chocolate, rollercoasters and obscure indie music are always winners.
