Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the concept of couch-surfing. It is another form of connecting with people from around the world. Another form to experience peoples way of life.
And of course a spot on a couch is always a bonus.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had an amazing first couch-surfing experience on Vancouver island. My lovely host couple took my cousin and I hiking, canoeing and disc-golfing. We were very lucky!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - It depends on the situation. With a big croud of people I like comedies. As a small group I like dramas and thrillers, the thinking type movies.
Music - I can listen to anything. I`m a big fan of New Zealand dub music. I love reggae, rock, electro, house, trance...the list goes on.
Books - Jody Picoult is my favourite author. I go through phases of reading a lot and not reading at all for long lengths of time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 9 I was in the Marquesas Islands, in the Pacific with my family, on the boat. As I looked out of the bay I saw a Humpback whale shoot up out of the water. Other yachties had seen the whales too and we soon got a snorkel group together. We spent several hours in the water with the pod of whales, fully grown and babies too. I may have been young but it was still an amazing and unforgettable experience.
