Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
When in Ravensburg, Munich or Konstanz, offering small city tours in English (and partly in Spanish), active in Munich city group. No hosting possible at the moment.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Before entering couch surfing, I hosted and visited friends all over Europe. Directly via couch surfing I haven't hosted yet - first there were no surfers, now there is no opportunity. I surfed 6 or 7 times in different countries (including Germany ;) )via Couch Surfing. Played city guide in Munich and Konstanz and enjoyed wonderful couch surfer meetings :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Too many amazing things, hard to pick out one...
Just a random funny story I've experienced...:
During one trip in southern france, as we were around 16, 17, we slept at a friend's parents' holiday house. We panicked as we saw scorpions over there until we heard that being hit by their tail is something between a moscito bite and a wasp sting. We managed to catch a dead one and kept it in a matchbox for bringing back home.
Ten days later we were on a camping site and my friend wanted to cook something. To light the cooker, he took a reandom matchbox, opened it and started screaming... it was the matchbox with the dead scorpion inside :D.
