I think Couchsurfing can be a wonderful tool to get to know locals when you are traveling and to be able to share your culture when you are hosting. I believe in the power of connecting and communicating with people from different cultures. If there were more travellers in the world, I'm sure it would be a better place. I do a lot of things - teach Yoga, sing in a rock band, perform as a drag queen (yeah, women can be drags too), translate and although none of those things define me, I'm pretty sure they speak a lot about the person I am, full of interests, energy and eager to explore life to its fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travellers understand travellers. I was already hosted in India and in Paris (not always a good experience and sometimes the best experience ever) and I hosted some people in my hometown. I love to talk and to understand the many different cultures around the world.
