ABOUT ME

I'm about to head to Europe for a month. I've never been before, so I'm looking forward to it. I'll probably be using Couchsurfing a lot while I'm there.

I've lived in Brooklyn for about 7 years. I'm originally from Texas. At the moment I teach guitar lessons.

PHILOSOPHY

hmm, I don't know... maybe to not have a 'personal philosophy.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

(see next question)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used Couchsurfing on a trip I took to Montreal. I stayed with a few different people and met up with another guy for breakfast. Also, I 'hosted' many people in my old loft apartment in Brooklyn, though this wasn't through the Couchsurfing website--friends of friends and subletters from France, Germany, Italy, Austria, UK, etc.
