Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am surfing right now as I was just told about it and wasnt really sure what was this about.
I wish to host on a later time when i come back to my house, it would be great to have someone over from time to time to exchange experiences and sho my city to them, I have worked on the travel bussiness for a while so I know what things are great to see and of course go on the cheapest rates ALWAYS!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new on this so really i am clueless about it, I have heard that it´s great to couchsurf and so but never experience it before so why not giving it a try, I mean i am looking at profiles of people and it seems it´s a great community, and I like that.
ever since i was a small kid my parent always had people over from USA and Canada, as cultural exchanges, we hosted people at home for a month or more, getting to learn their culture and well they learned spanish we learned english, and even japanese!!!! (which i can only recall how to say my name is:) so never CS but I have lots of experience on cultural exchanges thruout my life, as well when I was 15 I used to go to USA on cultural exchanges as a mexican folk dancer so I was teaching mexican dances and culture to people form USA we sort of CS there...

Love reading: love garcia marquez, love the beat generation books (they were so out of their minds), love Anne Rice vampires books , altough the latest werent as good as the first 5 she managed to write, Carlos Castaneda I believe is a great writer sometimes I dont know if what he writes about was actually true but it gives you a really good look of the shamanic world of mexico, a brave new world and 1984, is awesome how orwell and huxley actually sort of foresaw the future, the perfume (it´s fantastic),

Algo increíble que he hecho

i believe the most amazing thng that I´ve made was to leave home at 18, and go to a different country to teach about my culture ( I am a professional Mexican folk dancer), after that I came back to Mexico and performed for 2 years in the best mexican folk dance troupe that there is (http://youtu.be/RNIemA4XNRg), and performed at the palace of fine arts of mexico one of the best theaters of the world the ballet folklorico de Amalia Hernandez it´s one of the best of the world.
in there we perfomed in Monaco for Prince Rainier III it was awesome
