I am not able to host anyone at the moment. Looking for some accommodations in OC. Sort term or possibly longer.

About me:

I'm a good cook. I like to keep things tidy and I don't smoke.

My philosophy is "leave it better than you found it".

I never used CS but, not new to this concept. I usually travel in the US but, hope to travel more abroad, this year. It's always nice to see a friendly face when you get off the plane or train.

In the past, I frequently have had friends over. I like to host and entertain. I love cooking and catering to friends and family. Due to my current travel shedule, I am not always available to host.

I'll try to add more about me soon.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The coolest thing I've done lately is, spending New Years Eve in a nice suite at the Beverly Hilton. I had friends over that "couch surfered me". :) We had a great time. Wish I was on this site then. I would have sent more invites.

To most of my friends and family, I have a very interesting life. After reading some of the profiles on here, I'm not so sure, that is true.

NYE on the Queen Mary
Elton John at The Staples Center
Camping in the dessert (Barrego Springs and Glamis)
Swimming with the dolphins off an island in the Gulf Of Mexico
Mardi Gras & Fantasy Fest a couple of times
A weekend at Clint Eastwoods, Mission Ranch

2 weeks in Europe.
London, Paris, Versailles, Barcelona, Madrid.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'm a good cook and don't mind pitching in with chores, at all. I am competent enough to run errands or shop. I have done some pretty interesting things and enjoy sharing stories. I'm not just looking for a free place to stay but, I like to reciprocate in some way.

I do plan to use CS to travel to a few places, that would otherwise be cost prohibitive, to me.
