Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted a handfull of times in the U.S.A and it has been a blast.

I have had many groups of people couchsurfing stay over and it has always been a great experience. I love showing people around, taking them Kayaking, Hiking, to the Beach, camping or even to see local music.

I also regularly have touring bands stay over (often with no warning) it is always a party.
I regularly tour with friends bands as a Photographer/ Roadie and will crash on what ever is softish.

Interests

My Hobby is Photography. I am self taught mostly taking pictures and Video of live bands. But also love taking pictures of Nature.
I obviously love music.
Going on Sunday drives down random dirt tracks is always fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Doug: In 2015 I spent 4.5 months roadtripping across the U.S.A. California to New York. Couchsurfing and camping as much as we could along the way.

Clare: I ran a salvage yard for 6 years. I was the only female employee of 120 men. Basically selling everything and anything that people dumped. The community that grew around junk was a beautiful thing to be apart of, skill sharing, trading goods and services and brain storming ideas for any problem! I saw so much history, met so many unique characters and learnt so much!
