Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Be a respectful person is this circle of giving and taking

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never formally couch surfed as of yet but done plenty of couch surfing in India, Europe and South America and Mexico without any internet format and the like but I am happy to see that there is now an organized place to meet like minded people.

Interests

Art, dancing, reading, yoga, riding bikes, meeting new people, speaking Spanish, cooking, swimming (especially in the Pacific ocean--home!) and laughing as much as possible

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favorite books is "Too loud a Solitude" by a Chec writer named Hrabel. Amazing. I just finished reading "The Places in Between" by a Scotsman named Rory Stewart and his walk across Afghanistan. Also amazing and very inspiring.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think walking along the Ganges river in India by myself at night without a flashlight(torch) and running into strange characters on the road but not getting freaked out. I was later told that road was dangerous but I made it without any issues, and it was absolutely beautiful.

Teach, Learn, Share

A smile goes a very long way and doing the dishes for your host is always just as welcome as a big smile.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Guatemala, Mexico
