Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

not really much at this point, other than opening my front door and offering a place to crash for a couple of nights, and depending on time available, mutual interests and personal connection, of course time for talks and tea. i am planning to go to one of the meetings in bremen some time and hope to get in contact with people this summer, when travelling parts of the US.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have hosted one person so far. a few other requests have not worked out. my first experience was very nice and interesting. i am looking forward to getting to know more people this way.
my son and i have been to the US this summer (2009) and have met some very nice and interesting people through cs/ surfing their couches. we are both grateful for the friendly ways we have been welcomed into their homes and hope to stay in touch.
