Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mutual friend introduced me to CS

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences so far with CS has been really positive.
I get a kick out of staying with locals and learn more about their life in its homeland as opposed to staying in hostels & hotels.

Interests

During the full year of 2013, I took a year hiatus after completing my Masters in October 2012. It was an extraordinary year to be free and to travel everyday, educate people about Deaf Culture and sign language, trying new dishes, write, think, and breathe everyday.

I love tea, coffee, cooking, arty stuff, books, collecting quotes, sunsets over Pacific Ocean (I lived in San Diego for few years). Photography, camping, hiking, campaigning for good causes, and delving into nature are among things I spend my time.
