Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've just joined. I love to trave1 as much like a local as possible and meet people from different cultures. I hope to meet like-minded people and share experiences and learn from them. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have surfed on friends' couches in the UK, Australia, Canada, St Thomas, Puerto Rico many times in the past 15 years.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
The green flash. When there are no clouds on the western horizon, as the sun sets over the blue Caribbean, just at the moment that the sun-ball drops below the horizon there is a flash of green that is nothing short of incredible! Every sunset here is gorgeous in its own way. Some are more spectacular than others.
