PHILOSOPHY

i could go on FOREVER about this,actually, we can probably talk more about this when we crash on each others' couches, but it really just boils down to:
do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

NO COUCH AVAILABLE UNTIL OCTOBER 2011.
If i'm in town, maybe we can have a coffee or i can show you around madrid or go out with my friends that night.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

even though this story didn't happen through CS, I'd like to share it, the first day i arrived in Madrid i had a reservation at a shitty hostel for 2 weeks. I met up with Luis, a connection in Madrid through a cousin in London. Luis took me out for a drink and brought his friend Elena, she immediately offered me to crash on her couch. I said yes, and 3 weeks later, when I had found my own apartment we were inseparable. & 7 months later...we're still inseparable.

This experience really impacted me, the way Elena, saw me and believed in me and trusted in me immediately. I'd like to pay that forward.

"Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it."-Lewis Carroll

I'm sorry, i LOVE this concept, but writing about it in this tiny box would just undervalue it entirely.
