COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Back in July 2009 in Trivandrum, India, I was lucky enough to bump into Mr. Tony Tom during my search for accommodation at CS. Not only did he provide me and my friends shelter, but he also gave us a free ride around Trivandrum and its outskirts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's really a tough call...

Seen: one of them is an amazing, endless view overlooking Tokyo cityscape from the 80th floor of Mori Tower, Tokyo;

Done: maybe winning a scholarship to study in the UK? or catching hammerhead sharks in the Gulf of Mexico? or fish feeding on the sea floor in the Philippines?
There are too many to think of!
