Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm really new to CS and the idea of it. I'm hoping to do some couch surfing by this year and hopefully host a few.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have yet to have a personal CouchSurfing experience of my own other than what I've heard from a friend of mine. I'm hoping my coming trip to Japan will change that.

Interests

I'll never say no to an invitation involving food. I especially love Japanese and Chinese cuisine. Other favourites include italian and anything spicy. If it can be eaten, I'll give it a try! Music of all forms. From buskers, musicals to full on concerts. I'll always tip a busker as long as he/she can hold a tune. I enjoy playing electric guitar, although I don't consider myself very good at the art. Traveling and walking ridiculous distances. I enjoy hiking and great views. I'm not too good with boats and being at sea unfortunately.I'm also big video game geek. I've loved games for as long as I can remember, all the way since the 5.5" floppy disk. I'm a big fan of movies as well and will watch pretty much everything.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite movies from the top of my head: The Shawshank Redemption, The Bucket List and Catch Me If You Can. I'm also an avid Star Wars fanboy. I grew up with 90's Alternative Rock (Nine Days, Matchbox Twenty, Third Eye Blind), but my true love is Swing (Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole) and the Blues (Clapton and The King).
