About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have adventures and to meet people who inspire me to continue adventuring!

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I spread the word to everyone I know about Couch Surfing and all the amazing people involved. Most of the people I have hosted, were not a part of CS before I met them. Now, they are!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love CS events. They are a great way to meet great people in a new city. It is so difficult to know where to find interesting people in a new city but CS draws a giant red arrow to some truly amazing individuals. In Munster, Germany, I arrived with no place to stay but just in time to catch a CS event where I met a very welcoming group of people from all over the world and I was able to find a couch for two nights and I met a guy who took me rock climbing in a barn in the countryside! I also met a girl who asked me to return a shirt to a man in Berlin because I was heading that way next. When I called to return the man's shirt, he told me that he was out of town but that I could stay in his flat while he was away. All of these connections from just one event! How can one site hold so many wonderful people?
