我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing has become a passion for me. It's a way of life: I live it, breathe it, drink it, and I absolutely love it!
I did a lot of couch surfer hosting in my twenties and was deeply involved in the local Denver CS scene for a stint.

- Hosting: I think I'm somewhere around 60 or 70+ guests.
- Surfing: So far, only three times, but each time was all I could've hoped for and more!
- Organizing: Many meet-ups and events in Denver, including "Surfers in the Park" which was a weekly summer event.
- Spreading the love: I guess I'm sort of a networker by nature- I love making connections with people and between people. I'm great at setting up "friend-dates", ie introducing surfers to each other and knowing who's gonna absolutely LOVE hanging out with/surfing with/hosting who. Sometimes it's all by accident and sometimes I do it intentionally. Either way, I like helping people make new friends. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfers have saved my life on more than 3 or 4 or 10 occasions.

音乐、电影和书籍

I have always thought of the music I listen to as sort of the soundtrack to my life, so it's very much whatever fits my mood at the moment. I've found music from basically every genre that I like (or can at least appreciate). My staples, however, tend to be folk/acoustic-based. My two all-time favorites are Ani DiFranco and Bob Dylan.
Movies- I love dark comedies, satires, and mock-umentaries (Donnie Darko, The Royal Tenenbaums, Little Miss Sunshine, Best in Show, Princess Bride, Clue, etc). I've also become somewhat addicted to documentaries lately.
Books- I have to admit that I've never been much of a reader, but I'm working on it...

教，学，和分享

I love to learn and to teach! I am willing to teach anything I might have to offer- from snowboarding lessons to life lessons- I'm no expert at either, but I'm more than happy to share what I've learned with anyone who's interested.

Personally, I am a human sponge; Whatever anyone else has to teach, I will gladly soak it up. I'm very interested right now in learning more about sustainable energy technology and hydroponic growing.
