In my spare time i study, cook, clean, surf the net, watch a good movie, go for a walk, exercise, learn Chinese, play sports, take a bike ride....

PHILOSOPHY

Only time will tell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to do a lot of hosting and I surfed a bit, but now I could meet you for a drink/lunch/dinner and depending on the situation, you and your guest might be able to crash on the sofa during the weekend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a few peoples couches now, and all the experiences were wonderful. I must admit waking up and asking, "where am I," is very interesting.

Has it ever happened to you?
