Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been on the site for a few years but actually only surfed one couch. That was in Budapest about 2010. I did get a friend in Tohoku, Japan to become a couchsurfing host by telling her my stories though.

One drawback of working and living in a backpacker hostel is I'm not allowed to compete with the business by offering a free spot to sleep in my room )-:

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Hopping in a taxi in Mexico and saying "follow that bus!" since it left without me but with all my luggage.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I seem to be fairly good at teaching languages one on one and that's also how I like to learn them. So I'm open to anyone who might want to do a little language interchange. My Spanish should be good enough to teach anyone who is at the very beginning. Or you can just pretend you're interested in languages and see which one of us knows the most words for "cheers" (-:
