我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been to my sister's netflix movie nights and a comedy night at UCB.

I hosted my first surfer last year - he was wonderfully polite, flexible, and interested... and he seemed to enjoy my couch :)

I surfed in Atlanta for the first time in April 2009 and had a blast! Over the summer, I surfed with my sister in Stockholm - it definitely changed my life :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

overall, I gotta say, the couch surfing community is a unique sort - completely open-minded and friendly, full of rich experiences and curious stories, adventurous, playful... I have had such a blast chatting with, exploring with, seeing concerts with, cooking with, playing with, laughing with all the couch surfers I've met :)

音乐、电影和书籍

Movies: Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Shakespeare in Love, Napoleon Dynamite, Stealing Beauty, Dead Poets Society, The Bicycle Thief, Hot Fuzz, You and Me and Everyone We Know - I love watching films but tend to over-analyze them :)

Music: I'm open to anything with a good beat and/or compelling lyrics, although I'm a softie for a soothing voice over an acoustic guitar

Books: Brave New World, Peace Is Every Step, The Clan of the Cave Bear, The Name of the Rose, The Things They Carried, The Giver, Ender's Game, and whatever I'm teaching at the time (currently: The Great Gatsby)
