I'm interested in meeting people who are open minded. Everyone is entitle to their own opinions. At times during a conversation, a person may be tempted to immediately judge someone else based on what is said which may be different then her/his own perspectives/viewpoints. Lastly, I want to have stimulating conversations with an intellectual person. My definition of smart or intelligent is not a person who has a good memory or great grades in school. As long a person makes good decisions, plans ahead, learns from their mistakes and can reason they are smart. That's why I'm on Couchsurfing. I actually moved my hosting to Airbnb recently. I wanted to offer a safer and more attentive experience for guests. If you’re interested, I’d be happy to share the Airbnb link with you. That said, I still offer one free night for fellow Couchsurfers as a gesture of community spirit. If that doesn’t work for you, I’d still be happy to meet up and hang out. Just let me know your schedule and interests — maybe we can find something fun to do together.
