Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

New to this. Plenty of time to enjoy this fantastic site.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted the friend of a couchsurfer as my first experience of this site and was happy to put her up and make sure she got to see the best of Edinburgh. Now heading to China for who knows how long and hope to learn more from people out there.

Interests

Being in the hills on the mountain bike, running after work, a bit of footy or an Ironman triathlon. Anything to justify a beer afterwards and an excuse to chat about anything and everything. Also love travel, new people, new places and new things.
