Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have both surfed and hosted quite a few people. I love to host whenever I can because I've had nothing but good experiences. Every person I've hosted has been great fun to be around and I really enjoy showing them my city. I also love to surf when I travel because opposed to being in a hotel you get to meet a new person or people that at least in my experience you have great conversations and you get to learn about how someone from where you are visiting lives, which for me really enriches the travelling experience.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've Hosted quite a few people from Germany, Lithuania, and France Italy, USA, Argentina and beyond.
And I've couchsurfed with quite a few place across the USA in Philadelphia, Knoxville, Flagstaff, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, New York, Boston and Toronto.
I also couch surfed in Stuttgart with the girls that I hosted from there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach photography amongst other things. I can recommend some good films as I have seen quite a few. I can also teach basic guitar.
I'm always eager to learn new things.
I'm currently learning Japanese, so if you speak it, I'd love to practice with you.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I try to hang out with my hosts as much as I can, for me, Couchsurfing isn't about getting a free place to stay, it's about making new friends and experiencing people's real lives.
