我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosting people since the start of the year and it has been brilliant; Couchsurfing definitely helps keep the spirit of travel alive when your stuck in one place for a while.

I have never couch surfed myself but I have spent a month living with a Guatemalan family. I stayed with a farmer in Colombia who I met randomly in a pub - he invited me to spend a few days out on his farm, amazing experience. Also stayed with a family in Colombia who invited me and a friend to stay as they thought our hotel was too expensive!

兴趣

Running (whenever, wherever and as much as possible)
Yoga (very much a novice but trying to learn as much as possible)
Hiking especially if it involves going up mountains and camping out in the wild.
Climbing - I haven't got past going to the local climbing centres yet,but some outdoor climbing is defintely in plan for the future
Music and gigs (Rock, Metal, Indie, folk) just listening, I can't play any instruments.
Reading - all sorts, depends on my mood
Languages, I learnt quite a bit of Spanish on a 6 month trip to Latin America, though unfortunately I don't get too much time to practice it these days
