HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Just started, but I have told several people about the website... I have also had one couchsurfer stay at my house.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have slept on many couches, so naturally this community appealed to me.
Interests
I love music (i have 5 Red Hot Chili Pepper - related tattoos) I love talking politics and world issues. I am a vegetarian and love all animals. I love rockclimbing, hiking, whitewater rafting/kayaking, travelling, spelunking, and living. I love working for NYPIRG.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In September 07 I jumped off of a bridge that was 85 feet above a shallow river.. I broke my back but more importantly I survived and am now a different person with a new outlook on life.
