COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I traveled for 6 wks on the southern island chain of Okinawa, Japan. I stayed 3 of those 6 wks in other people's houses. Such hospitality to a total stranger surprised me.

Then i hosted 2 brit's. Skydiving, the desert, firearm's and thats only half the story.

Then some more british dr's, a few college students from Michigan, then surfed in Bogota for two weeks my boys Seabass & G-mo. Cant forget the french exchange students....Fre ri zha ka (that cant be spelled right) and Team Rock & Roll (sex and drugs can't be far behind).

Aside from one woman in Isigaki, Japan, who was a total jerk, this website and the people i've met through it have been amazing.
