Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have a couch for one and all! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I had a pair of great experiences (not necessarily related with CSing the site) in Italy and Sweden. In Italy I stayed with a guy named Giuseppe who was a passionate tour-guide to the town of Asisi as well as a passionate football spectator when we got back to chill at his place. Love football. In Sweden, a very nice girl I just happened to meet offered to let me stay at her place since she was living with her beau at the time. It's so nice to find people committing such random acts of generosity.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
The white nights in Sweden are amazing... seeing the sun dip to the horizon then slowly wander through the trees is enchanting. Slept on the beach in a hurricane. This was not intentional.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can certainly share my knowledge of cooking, coffee and language. I would love to learn how to live more sustainably. Mostly, I'd like to learn how to garden.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can share a good deal of knowledge in a select few subjects. Namely language learning, health and nutrition, etc. I also like making coffee. I can make you French press, an Italian mokka, a Vietnamese ca phe sua da, a pourover... just let me know if you like milk/lattes because I don't normally have any on hand.
