Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing has allowed me to meet amazing people from around the globe. It not only affords me the opportunity to learn about new cultures, but it has also helped make my travels more affordable. I enjoy sharing stories about travels, culture and anything else taht might come up.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started couchsurfing in college when my lease ran out and I was about to graduate. Once I moved to Europe, I started traveling alone all the time. I realized that I could meet interesting people and have a deeper cultural experience through couchsurfing!

Interests

Music, conversation, good beer, exploring the world, learning German, yoga, travel, paddle boarding.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Americana, classic rock, bluegrass.
Movies: Always changing with my mood.
TV: I tend to like crime shows with subtitles.
Books: Great Gatsby is my all time favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran the Munich Marathon in 2010. It was a great way to explore the city and I accomplished a lifetime goal along the way!

Teach, Learn, Share

Through all of my travels, one thing has held true everywhere I have gone. If you are kind to people and smile, people seem to be very kind in return. People have trouble keeping a straight face when you smile! I try to put a smile on the face of as many people as I can!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Coffee and good conversation!
