Overview
About Me
I grew up all over the world, changing countries pretty much every 4 years.
Name a country and there's a 95% chance I either lived there or visited it.
I speak 5 languages, but master none.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Most of all, I want to meet new people. I want to know the people from the places, cities, countries I visit. That's what traveling is about: understanding local cultures.
I could stay in a cheap hostel but that wouldn't be the same.
I have to admit though, I've add MUCH more luck staying at local people's place just by talking with strangers than by being accepted on CS. Which is why I don't end up using it that much
I always take time to read people's profile before sending them a request.
I expect the same when I get a request. Prove it by sharing something personal about yourself in the first message you send me.
