Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In India I lived together sometimes with couchsurfers from all around the world - and this was realy a good experience.
Then I stayed in Celle 2010 with an amazing women and her son and we spend really a good time together.
From then on I used CS some other times to
spend nights in Portugal or in the Netherlands and I always found kind, interesting and good people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Climbed with friends at night into an old castle in India and slept there - the scenery with fireflies and ruins remained vividly in my memory
Himalaya at sunset.. Try it. It's worth it.
Once I saw a couple that was maybe 80 years old.. the men approached the women and then suddenly huged her and lifted her up for some centimeters and then kissed her passionately - I think that is quite amazing!
Any ocean .. especially at night.. especially at full moon.. the Atlantic at the coast of Portugal is my favourite so far.
A red full moon eclipse..
I don't know if I really did an amazing thing.. I just did things. And most of the once that seem cool afterwards were a pain in the ass while doing them.
