Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've played host and tour guide to many here in Santa Barbara through a cultral-exchange organization called Servas International See http://servas.org

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I traveled in India and Servas International connected me with a couple of people who were devotees of Ghandian philosophy. I got to try my hand spinning cotton by hand and plowing a field with an Ox... Before having children I also hosted many travelers at my home in Santa Barbara CA, USA through Servas International.
