Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf now and then, and may have a couch for you if I'm in town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on a lot of couches now, and only had great experiences. You get to meet so many different people, and see places from their view. You can really get immersed in the culture and peoples, and it's so much fun! Takes a certain kind of person to host, and those are the best people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is a hard question, so many things have personally been amazing to me, but may seem mundane to others! Basically, every time I go outside I am amazed by nature, as cliche as that is.
I was also able to see The Parthenon - it was an otherworldly experience for me, almost spiritual... Plus seeing other cities too; each place has it's own vibe and life. Traveling is the amazing thing I've done, and will continue to do!
