It's all about volunteering and immersing myself in the local culture. I'm not on CS for a free place to lay my head, that's just a bonus. I want to learn, help, and make a difference.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to be a participant wherever I go, not a spectator. I'm into alternative ways of doing things, and Couchsurfing is a perfect fit for my lifestyle.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm tech savvy, good at solving problems. I've been told I make an amazing gourmet salad! Can make and repair stuff :) I'm fun and like good conversation. I am super clean and responsible. I'm also a bit weird and do not fit inside any box.
